The first book I ever cried about

I hated Stanley Forbes in the first book but he didn’t deserve to meet that fate even if he was who he was in the past

Another great book by Holly Jackson

those last few chapters? i was there with her. that was fucking scary. incredible. never wanna go through something like that again.
 happy i was able to guess who they are 191 pages in. never fully trust people who are kind for no reason. they also just groomed her to do bad things and just fully let her anger out. did pip go to therapy after the last book? she def should go now.
i hope max dies next. or go to jail forever, then immediately die bcs they beat him to death.
wish i could tag the cw for betrayal bcs fuck ant & lauren.

the beginning of the book was not as catchy as agggtm. found it kinda hard to pick up, but i'm glad i pushed through, because once i hit the 20%-something mark i really couldn't stop. especially the last 40% of the book. holy shit. she's done it again. completely blew me away by the last few chapters.

I liked the second book better than the first one because the start was faster. However, I found the middle slower. Less suspects, more timeline, I really liked that. The perspective from the podcast was fun. I feel like we saw in more depth the grow of the characters. I liked how everyone grew including Pip AND the relationship between Pip and Ravi
