Solid psychological thriller, especially for a debut novel. It does a great job depicting adolescent cruelty. If you’re listening to the audiobook though, the editing is TERRIBLE. Don’t get me wrong, the voice actor is great. It’s the editing. There are repeated passages throughout and, at one point, you actually hear the actor clear her throat and repeat the passage.
