I keep going back and forth between a 3.75 and 4 star rating. I do think I was on the side of the book community that did enjoy this book. I can easily see how you might either love it or absolutely hate it. I thought it was a really quick fast pace read with how short the chapters are. I actually think it’s probably best read in one sitting and binging it. 

wow this was so intriguing and completely unexpected. i finally got around to one of the og tik tok books and i was so pleasantly surprised with this 
read. 
it reads very poetic. it reads kind of dark & mysterious. read if you want fast paced, read in one sitting, rich family drama, ya mystery summer vibes. 
i wouldn't say it's a fav but i did like it & want to read the prequel. also, very excited for the show.
