The first half of the book felt very slow. I’m not sure if it’s because school just started so I’m back to worth and overwhelmed, or if I genuinely just wasn’t as into the book as I’d hoped, but it took me, like, 6 days to read the first half, and only 1 day to read the second half. Needless to say, it finally got good…halfway in.
I don’t feel very passionate about either boy in the love triangle. I like them both, but I’m not steadily on a team yet.

- love triangle)??( was that really necessary????
- i really did not feel the love between the characters (cassie/dean/michael)
- JLB has a thing for love triangles istg
- the murder “mystery” was very predictable
- legit the only reason i finished this book was to make sure i was right (i was)
- very much your standard, run-of-the-mill criminal minds episode/basic murder mystery plot with very little thought put into it
- “JLB has never written a bad book” i present my second piece of evidence (the first being inheritance games)
- nothing was explained it all just happened and then was looked over
