"I appreciated the depth and individuality of each of the characters had. While the plot twist felt somewhat predictable to me, it didn’t take away from the overall tension and enjoyment of the book. The journey was still satisfying, and the unique premise added a refreshing twist to the typical high school drama. Would definitely recommend!"

"This book was definitely not a page turner but it was still engaging. It had a bit of a "deadly" scavenger hunt throughout which made it kind of fun. I was super disappointed with the unveiling of the investigation into the girls suicide BUT Kay's "skeletons" came out at the very end which added a nice twist at the end."
