I really liked this book I would give it a 3.5 out of 5. It wasn't much of a mystery, but I loved the character growth through the book. Teenager life is so hard, especially with social media. How we are all just trying to except who we all and for that I really enjoyed this book, for that.

I also figured out who and how, but I couldn't understand why until almost the end. I think it's a murder mystery for very young people, but it was ok, I really did enjoyed it very much :)

I liked this one a lot, I love a good mystery but this was not really Agatha Christie kind of mystery, you could figure out the mystery part pretty fast in my opinion but the book balanced that nice with the other components like the development of the relationships between the main characters, I really liked those. So for me it was a great collection of different features and I will definitly read the second one as well.

This was a fun book! The characters were likable and relatable and the twist was interesting. I thought I’d figured out the murderer halfway through, but happily, I was wrong! The book’s self-declared description of The Breakfast Club meets Pretty Little Liars is spot on. I liked reading a mystery/suspense that was a little less depressing than something like Gone Girl or Girl on the Train.

I finished the book last night. As a young adult, I felt that the author did a well enough job keeping the book relevant to the times and how teenagers act today, but I felt that at times the stereotypes were too exaggerated at times. The story did, however, keep me on the edge of my seat, and kept me guessing the whole way through. My favorite characters were definitely Addy and Nate. I will most likely read the second one when possible to do so.

I had finish this book not to long ago and it was pretty crazy, now I’m going to start the sequel. Hopefully, it is just as good as the first.
