This Is Our Story by Ashley Elston

3.0

---

This one was good, but it could have so, so much better... I think just changing the setting from high school to college would have made everything more interesting and, more importantly, more believable. I don't want to give too much away because, as usual with these books, not knowing anything beforehand is key to enjoy them. The story is a bit typical but very cool and intriguing, and the author manages the pace brilliantly. The thing that frustrated me and the main reason why I´m not rating this higher is that to keep the mystery going and the reader unaware of who the real killer is we are introduced to at least 3 side plots that are left completely unsolved once the big reveal is made - in a very anticlimactic way, I may add. So while this kept me entertained, in the end I cannot help to feel a bit disappointed.
