“You’re not just some anything. You’re Pippa fricking Fitz-Amobi.”

I- Holy shit. I couldn't put this book down because it's so good!!!! I think the last 20% of the book really kept me on my toes. This was such a rollercoaster ride of emotions. There's suspense, there's comedy, there's sad moments, and everything in between. I love that this book was fast paced and I did not find a single moment boring. This was a well-done mystery, and for someone who hasn't really read much of the genre this one was pretty enjoyable. It maybe predictable at times but it was exciting to read. The narration of the book was something I liked, too, with the switching between the third person's narration and Pip's logs and transcripts

I love Pip and her family so much, I love their dynamic. Ravi and Cara, my two besties, I love you. Ngl, I thought Ravi was the same age as them but apparently he's three years older lol. I really couldn't care less about the other characters (except the ones I previously mentioned and the Singhs) they can all burn in Hell.
