4/5 ⭐

murder mystery, thriller, a little bit of romance.

i am the biggest fan of anything that will remind me of my favorite shows and Cindy did an absolute amazing job at mixing some of my favorite elements of thriller with a bit of horror. if you are thinking of a scream X mean girls X pretty little liars crossed universe, look no further you have found it.

dawn is the new girl in town, and with that comes responsibilities; fitting in, making new friends and adjusting to a new life. with her to-die-for looks, it doesn't take long until she starts fitting in with the popular crowd. she joins the cheerleading squad and it seems as if her life is going just fine.

however, this girl had just had a horrible accident, with her parents being barely there, she finds a way to slowly recover from it with the help of her aunt madison. things are going great until she gets invited to a party that turns her world upside down; this is the beginning of the end!

with a friend who attended the party now murdered, the police looks into all the people who are at the party as suspects, obviously dawn does not escape this even though she is the new girl in town. join this hunt in trying to find whoever killed the queen bee of the school while finding some of the most unsuspected things. pay close attention to the ones around you because not everything is quite what it seems...
