all i have to say is… wow 
this book has me shaking, crying, laughing and had my heart absolutely racing. honestly idk how i’m gonna sleep, it’s literally 3 am xx 
ok first off MY GIRL PIP DESERVES THE ABSOLUTE WORLD she’s so badass and smart. i adore her with my whole heart and i just want to see her happy!!!! i just hope her ptsd is better and that she’s getting help, i need her to be okay. holly jackson pls give a novella sequel abt ravi and pip and pip being happy bae that’s all i ask xx 
ravi angel boy, sweetest best book bf ever. his jokes 🥺 the way he’s to anything for pip. HE WAITED. HE SAVED PIP IN THE STOREHOUSE. i cannot, incredible book couple 
hey sarge, do you remember me? 
i think i’m gonna combust. idk if a line has ever had that much impact on me. I WANT TO SEE RAVI AND PIP HAPPY GODDAMNIT 
team ravi and pip. they got away with murder. 
FUCKING JASON BELL FUCKING HATED HIM FROM THE START. CUNT. DESERVED WHAT HE GOT. he killed barney too wtf
the whole kidnapping thing made me sick like my heart was beating so hard. the pigeons and chalk and speakers too like i was terrified. 
 i feel so bad for andie, the fact she knew her dad was looking at her like that. so disgusting i just can’t. i want to see the convo between becca and pip 
but pip is so smart, i’m so glad she got away w it. obviously it’s fiction so liberties but i’m happy either way because the OTHER CUNT MAX HASTINGS IS ROTTING IN PRISON AS THE MF SHOULD 
DI hawking a needs to take his fat face away from here because where was he for the true justice of SAL? of andie? but when it’s two white men rapists he wants to see the truth. disgusting 
i just wanna see more of the DT stuff like what happened to daniel? I JUST WANTED MORE 😭 the book is 500 pages and i want more lmao 
i want a reunion scene w pip, ravi, josh and the fam, cara, naomi, nat, jamie, connor and becca 😭😭😭 give it to me holly jackson pls
fuck ant and lauren too, wish we saw zach tho 
the plot is insanely good. so so so so good. idk if i like book 1 or this one more cos book 1 was more cohesive but this book had a lot of feels. if i had to choose, it would be book 1 but i still adore this. i immediately want to reread the series tho for the clues. every plot line was so cleverly tied up, it’s incredible 
the moral questions were extremely interesting. i had the same charlie, stanley debate pip had in my own head. life is grey areas and that’s why this series is so special 
free my girl pip for jason and max, she did nothing wrong! honestly tho it was self defence and the police and justice system have routinely shown their corruption so, all the power to pip. max was literally found not guilty for rape like wtf? 
incredible book. idk if i like agggtm or soc more, maybe both 
all i want is a novella pls pls pls 😭😭😭
hey sarge, remember me? 
SOBBING
