This was such a fun read! I knew I hd to read it once I saw that this was Manansala’s YA debut. At first I felt it was a little simple and I wasn’t fully invested, but as the story went on, I felt like this was a great book with well-rounded characters and an interesting and smart mystery. It was a great book to have playing in the car while driving my kids to camp and my eldest always wanted me to turn it back on whenever I dared pause the novel to say something. I really enjoyed this book and inhaled it over the course of two days.
