"She Started It" by Sian Gilbert is a captivating and suspenseful novel that kept me engaged from start to finish. The story follows a group of friends on a road trip that takes a dark turn as long-buried secrets come to light, testing their bonds and loyalties. The author's writing style is compelling, drawing me into the characters' lives and emotions. The complex web of lies and intrigue kept me guessing, and I appreciated the shifting perspectives that added depth to the narrative. I particularly enjoyed Poppy’s storyline, especially the flashback diary format, which contrasted nicely with the rest of the book. The plot was filled with enough twists and turns to keep me intrigued, and I valued the thought-provoking themes it explored. The unexpected plot twist surprised me, which is a rare occurrence for me, so I found that particularly enjoyable. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the book.
