Holly Jackson took the question „if the romance wasn’t part of the book anymore, would there still be a plot?“ way to seriously and the romance is the smallest part of the novel.
But apart of this cute little love side story, this book is filled with great relationships, well developed characters, thrilling events that aren’t far fetched at all and a chapter concept that guarantees a one of a kind reading flow.
Would highly recommend this young adult thriller and already feel exited for the second book!
