i like the premise of this book but unfortunately the execution was just not it for me. even when it started to get interesting it felt like a chore to read.

I liked this book quite a bit! It was very hard to understand but that's my fault, not the books. Although the protagonist is pretty insane, i really liked reading her perspective. When I got to the end, i think there was some kind of twist but it was hard for me to understand, again probably my fault. I think I'll have to read it again. I had to have enjoyed it though cause i finished it in one sitting.

cool how the timeline goes backwards so everything starts unravelling at the end but its all about identity theft n psycho besties.

didn't expect the plot to be like that and its not THAT interesting theres a bit of action and i got lazy to read those parts i wish it was more of her n her thoughts n like internal conflicts yk?
