👥CHARACTERS👥
•I think all the characters were kind of dull. Like I enjoyed learning about the MC and her personality but overall it was just kind of blah. 

✨PROS✨
•Felt relatable 
•Good lessons instilled in the writing

•I feel like I have no idea what really happened in this book. The story was all over the place and I don’t really even think we had a clear ending.

•Shocking twists & turns
•Intense building suspense in the best slow burn way 
•Unique plot

❌CONS❌
•The ending is a cliff hanger 😭
