It was pretty good. 

I did know who DT was pretty early on, so the twist wasn’t much of a twist. 

I had completely forgotten the other two books before this - this is a book that would have benefitted from a recap at the beginning I think. 

The ending was good. And the bit where they had ti cover up the crime? Sooooo intense. 

The headphones bit didn’t really get me. And I did wonder if she was actually going to die when she got kidnapped. 

I don’t think any of the characters are actually likeable though. Pip is kinda annoying. 

Idk. It was ok.
