So I really wanted to love this book. But.. I just didn’t. The writing wasn’t my favorite and the story had a lot of holes in it. I didn’t love The Guest List, so maybe I was just destined to not love this one. 

I know this is a huge title coming out, so I’m probably not a popular opinion. But Ben drove me NUTS. I didn’t understand any of Jess’s reasoning (I hate when people refuse to go to the police after a possible murder) or why she stayed there and I don’t understand why Ben had to sleep with everyone in the book as part of the story 🙄 honestly I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone. So much swearing, sex and drug use. It was just a lot unnecessarily that didn’t contribute to the story.
