Overall, this book was decent, but not my thing. I only really got invested in the final third, where the mystery started picking up. I wasn't a fan of how the POV characters were all high school steryotypes, though those were defied later. I liked the end of the book much more than I liked the begining. An alright read, but I think someone else could enjoy it more than I did.
