i liked this book but it wasn't great. tash's detective work was a little overblown, and the way her personal story (particularly her family's finances) kept creeping in was wayyy too drawn out. this book could have been shorter i think. i really liked the author's writing style and the "friend group" tash incorporates herself into... so smart and twisty. but i felt there were some details that were just too crazy/complicated.
