I've seen this book described as The Breakfast Club meets Pretty Little Liars and I have to say that is spot on.
McManus' writing style is refreshing, and there were twists and turns that kept me guessing and changing my mind on what had happened all the way through. I was not expecting the end result, not until all the pieces were together that was for sure.
I cannot wait to sink my teeth into her other books.
