Wow I really enjoyed this. I read the majority of it stuck in jury duty all day lol. It was super fast-paced and kept my attention, and I didn't want to stop reading. It was easy to follow what was going on which was good for being stuck in a room with tons of people and noise all day lol. I will definitely try the second book, although I'm not sure it could top this one. After talking with Molly she made me remember that I did find Millie a bit annoying at the beginning because she gets gut feelings that bad things will happen at this job but she ignores them. I liked how it switched to Nina's POV halfway through and alternated a bit. I'm glad I didn't get Andrew's POV.
