This left me in so much shock and the ending is so emotional. I gave this book 5 stars even though it has taken me so long to read it but I don't blame that on the book. I really liked the characters and all the different personalities, I also enjoyed how fast this book was and the setting.

I was in disbelief at the protagonist being an unreliable narrator, and it left me gagged that she has been lying to the reader! Also, I felt so bad for Maddy at the end of the book because she was so sweet. The letter at the end is also so sad, and the fact that Red's last words to the reader is her basically dying is so powerful. I really enjoyed the backstory about Red's mum and their relationship. I also loved the court case because it was quite interesting.

I absolutely adored this book! The plot twists were incredibly unpredictable, and the diverse cast of characters was fantastic. A small sequel would be wonderful, as the cliffhanger left me wanting more.
