This book was so incredible, it had me theorising and questioning who I thought it could be, and the relationship between characters was well done and amazing. Part Three had me crying a few times, and the ending was more shocking than my own theories, and it wasn't predictable at all. Also, Pip and Ravi's relationship was adorable. There were moments where I was laughing, somewhere I was crying, and some that had me holding my breath. I loved it and can't wait to get the next two books by Holly Jackson.

Overall, I found the book very enthralling I liked the prose of the book and found it unique and refreshing and gave the reader a deeper knowledge of Juliette's mind. I am rating highly for the actual writing more so than the plot, the writing was beautiful but the plot felt slow at the start but then quite rushed at the end.

Personally, I didn't like either Adam or Warner as characters so I am looking forward to their character development in the next book. Adam was bland, quite possessive and couldn't take a joke. Also, it was basically insta-love with Adam, which wasn't that appealing. Warner was creepy, sexist and controlling and made me feel uncomfortable at points and don't really see how he gets better. <

> especially as I believe he is the main love interest in the next books <</spoiler end>>, although I did enjoy his character at the beginning. I did like Kenji and James and hope we see more of them in future books.

Juliette as an MC was generally likeable and at some points, I found her character and bit boring and whiny but had so good moments too. The plot, especially the ending, was different to what I personally expected and that was good, I like a book that will keep me guessing, but again the ending was rushed to me. However, will continue to carry on the series.
