I enjoyed a lot of the book.
Teddy is likeable and charming. I just didn't understand why Dee was taking everything so personally. I get we should be advocates but she was about ready to lie, cheat, blackmail her way into exposing Michael... but why? For principal?
I still enjoyed the book though. If you like the other books, you'll find this book entertaining. Phillipa Soo is excellent too.
