Unbelievably good. 

I don't state that lightly, this had flaws but none of the flaws could have taken away the rating I gave this. 

Carly, a young woman in her first year away from her abusive father, gets paired into a dorm with a older student; Allison. She's everything Carly wants to be, and Carly is protective. 

Scarlett, a English professor with a hidden motive, she's a murderer. Not just anyone however, men who deserve it. 

I loved the LGBTQAI+ representation, and it wasn't portrayed as taboo like some books do it. The characters were unique, I especially loved Mikayla and Wes, both well written background/side characters with bigger roles near the ending. 

I did not expect that twist half way through and i am honestly so surprised, it's so different.

What a masterpiece! I've been meaning to read this one for a while now, but I'm happy I waited until I was really in the mood for a good thriller/mystery. From the beginning to the end, I was captivated and I cannot wait to add this to my physical library.
