Wow, this was really intense. I've been staring at a blank review box for a few minutes. IDK what else to say. On one hand, the ~twist~ was broadcast pretty heavily, but then it wasn't really about that?
It's definitely a page-turner and should appeal to teens who like dark thriller-type books.
I flew through this book. It was a really easy read and I found myself constantly wanting to know what happened next. That being said, I guessed the mIn plot twist pretty early on. It was still a really interesting and heart pounding story though. And I didn't expect the ending to take the turns it did and I'm so angry about it in a good way. I love an unreliable narrator, I think it really adds to the story when we don't know if we can trust what we're being told but holy shit. Like seriously I'm not sure if I can get myself to come to terms over what happened, and what never is going to happen. It's not the best thriller I've ever read but in terms of YA thrillers I was pretty impressed. It was an interesting read with good pacing that took multiple twists and turns throughout.
