• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated

4.5

4.5 stars!

The book started off slowly but it was overall a fast paced read. I thought I wasn’t going to like it but I absolutely enjoyed it.

I need to stop lying to myself though and admit that I am a crybaby :/  The book wasn’t very sad but I am a sympathy crier and anytime something kinda sad was mentioned there I was blubbering.

I was very intrigued by the mystery element and the ending was a bit unexpected (and I’m still kinda mad). 

I think Bailey handled it way better than me because I was so angry on her behalf. Especially with the laptop password (cruel). I think that was so sick and even now I’ve got angry tears for my girl. Pop off I guess, Vanessa.

I like how many different perspectives of grief were shown and how it showed that the same person isn’t really the same with everyone in their life.

This was a really good read, and I’d definitely recommend it! This would have been 5 stars if I wasn’t a crybaby. If I was strong willed, that would mean I would reread this book  but alas, I’m not always in the mood to cry. (But who knows I really liked this one so I may give it a go).
