One of the better books of this genre I've read lately. It's not a perfect book, I think the prose/ writing style could have been a little more polished. That being said, I would definitely recommend this book to a crime fan. The motivations make sense and for the most part the teenagers actually act like teenagers instead of perfect little robots. The crime reveal actually feels satisfying and doesn't end with that, “ This one person is hella psycho!” twist that I've come to hate. I prefer motivations that feel tethered to at least some reality. If you want to see people who think they're immune to consequences if they just ask nice suffer, read this book.
