i loved this book, and the fact that i managed guess the ending almost bang on. jonah
impersonating JT was the best plot twist ever and gave us a cute ship ♥️


thoughts while reading

p15: it's giving inheritance games
p32: sheesh that's an awkward first meeting to say the least
p80: AH!
REAL JONAH MUST BE ALLERGIC TO SHRIMP
! that must be how milly figured it out! what an absolute manipulative legend!!
p112: ohhh, jonah's dad must be the one who
lost all the money to anders

p113: yep
p114: i predict that jonah and milly will
get together by the end of the book

p116: that is a master plan
p123: is dr baxter faking his dementia or something??
p132: chaz is
uncle archer
?? honestly milly should just become a detective at this point
p135: honestly fair. he deserves water in the face
p141: damn fred baxter is a lot smarter than people give him credit for
p142: prediction: allison
gets pregnant with matt's baby

p156: DR BAXTER?? NOOOO
p169: i hope the Story kids didn't get the boot because of kayla
p181: maybe the car accident was just a cover up?
p193: i wouldn't, i have an off feeling about hazel
p198: WELL THAT WAS BOUND TO HAPPEN!! KEEP THE PDA TO PRIVATE!! but also
#jilly 🫶🏻

p229: what if adam and anders tried to
kill matt and kayla

p242: matt too! well this is just looking suspicious! maybe anders
drowned both matt and dr baxter

p256: oh my God, major prediction time: mildred actually
died 24 years ago and someone else took both mildred's and theresa's place
and that's why you never see either of them
p257: or what if theresa
murdered kayla?

p296: well that turned out almost exactly how i thought it would. i should take up mystery solving
