I'm not too sure if the rape happens in this one or the previous book but it happens and is mentioned in the series

don’t understand how people say this is “the boring book” in the series. that last scenes with the events all blurring together in pip’s mind after

stanley’s death

immediately negates any point anybody tries to make by saying that. 

though i kind of feel like stanley wasn’t the best character to do that whole plot with but i understand that introducing a new character might have been weird (and make the twist more predictable). his arc and backstory was also well constructed imo, though maybe the whole serial killer dad thing could have been foreshadowed earlier.

There is something about how Holly Jackson that she is able to write these ya gritty mystery thrillers that are both hopeful and immersive and heartbreaking back to back. I am glad to consume this trilogy one after another.

This was AMAZING! I barely see people talk about this book, but it was sooo good!! The first is definitely better, but this was SO entertaining! Lowkey Pip became the detective doing crimes lol
