4.5

This book was absolutely amazing. It was wonderfully written and you could really relate to the characters. There are plenty of cliffhangers, and suspense at the end of chapters. There was a major plot twist that you wouldn’t really see coming. The ending was emotional and a bit confusing but overall this book was wonderful. I would definitely recommend.

Not often do books in this genre surprise me every step of the way, but this one did. There was no long, slow burn to one predictable twist at the end, but constant twists and turns.

Saw another review that said this is Gone Girl meets 13 Reasons Why and I absolutely can see that, and love it.

I was so excited to read this story and sadly this book was a disappointment.

I enjoy a good mystery story and this was not it. I picked up right away that Delia was not dead (that being said I did read her other book, Where Nina Lies). I did not care for the lack of story. There were a lot of plots thrown at the reader as distraction until the reveal that she was alive, yet none of them come to a close. Did she sleep with Junes boyfriend? Was it his baby that she aborted? Was the abortion even real? Did the other member of the group kill their tormentors as well? Is Sebastian really Trevor? Where did the house and the money come from? Why is June so stupid and following Delia no matter what? 

My biggest question is why did June even go along with the revenge plot? June being a semi-sane person, albeit lonely however she would not have just gone along with the whole plot. This is just like the rest of the book, it felt a bunch of different stories of different books were put together to make this one. The drug dealer, the suicide, the cheating boyfriend, the crazy ex, the revenge group and the murders, it seems like these were puzzle pieces that did not fit together.
