I put this down as a medium paced read because I cannot accurately depict it's rate. When I first picked up this book I literally couldn't put it down for two days straight, every spare moment was spent reading.

I inhaled this book in only two days bc i was so captivated by it.
It was very well written und the plot was so clear that i always understood what Pip was discovering yet again. 
In the middle it was a LITLLE slow bc it was just one new realisation after another. But than there came some big plot twists and everything was soo tense again until the very last page.
Plus I really liked the characters (she still had both partents lol) and she was kinda funny and relatable (even so she's a huge workaholic). I also liked Ravi and their chemistry <3

Wow, this book really lived up to the hype. It was like a mish-mash of true crimes stories I’ve heard about meets Twin Peaks. The podcast format with a full-cast narration made for an excellent audio listen and the fast-paced intriguing reveals had me speeding through this one. I’ll definitely continue on with this series, although after this ending, I’ll be curious to see where it continues.

Review after rereading:

I guess my hyperfixation to this series reignited after watching the show. I appreciated Holly Jackson's writing more after my reread. She is indeed a genius.

And since I can't wait to read again how it all ties together, I'm off to read Good Girl, Bad Blood.
