There were some twists in this that got me, but honestly, it just didn’t really hit the same. Usually, I like a character that I can root for and want to be innocent to some extent, but there was not a single character in this book that I liked. I felt that it was a little predictable to an extent but the thing that really bothered me is all of the bullying that happened in this book. Also, if you weren’t aware, Dawn is autistic…… And I’m surprised that no one’s really talked about that but yeah she definitely is. Plus the last like 25% of the book felt really slow and drug out.
