Very easy and fun read, not a single boring moment. I kept trying to guess who the murderer was, which kept me engaged the entire story.
I like how the villains were nuanced, and you could understand why they did what they did, making it more realistic.
It wasn’t super original, and some of the plottwists were a bit pridictable. The main character was also a bit too perfect sometimes, but that does also fit the young adult genre. Even though the target audience is teens, I still very much enjoyed it as an adult.
