I really like the story structure of this book! Each part was a day over the summer and you get multiple characters perspective on the day and the events that transpired. Definitely a lot of rich people drama which was entertaining. However, even though the book is relatively short, it felt like it dragged a little. And there were so many characters that kind of all felt the same so they were hard to keep track of. And it was also hard to keep track of what each person knew about the secrets/ scandals taking place. Overall, it was a fun read, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to read it again.
