Something that I love about this author is that she takes her audience seriously. She brings up heavy topics in an educational way without it feeling like it is. Abuse and warning signs is a huge part of the story and is very accessible to younger readers. She is also a master of writing suspense. I was on the edge of my seat for the whole book. 

I also loved the way she wrote about having a best friend in middle school. The ups, the downs, the unwavering loyalty. There’s nothing like it.
