Solid till the end. I wasn't a fan of the way any of the plot was wrapped up.

This like the 'One of Us is Lying' series was an easy read. The flow was smooth and the plot twists were unpredictable. But McManus could have increased the tenseness a little more in the last act because I didn't find it all that satisfying. Although a little flimsy, the conclusion wasn't too horrible. The book's final sentence had such a shockingly unexpected conclusion. At first, it wasn't very apparent, but once I got it, it was good enough to state that Karen McManus is a plot-twist genius.

3 hours 12 minutes - I was enjoying this book immensely up until the ending was revealed, and don't get me wrong, it wasn't bad, but I was slightly disappointed, mainly because I didn't like how a lot of the information was relayed to Ellery via Ryan, almost an infodump of facts that the author couldn't figure out how to relay in a more natural way. However, I do think the reveal was good for the most part, unexpected but not unrealistic/far-fetched. I thought the character's were fairly interesting: Ellery maybe fell a little flat as a character but for the most part she was mostly fleshed out.

4.0

first things first, THIS BOOK HAS SUCH AN INCREDIBLE TWIST oh my god… towards the end there were such big plot twists and oh my lord- the last line of the book makes your hair stand. Like of all  the twists you would’ve expected, this would not have been one of it (at least for all the countless ones i thought about.) SO I AM SUPER IMPRESSED WITH THE PLOT TWIST. What an incredible idea, twist and story line. But i found the book rather slow paced or, like draggy… so i found myself kinda bored at the start and not as captivated. But the ending was bomb man. Awesome! Loved the ending and the plot twist… really REALLY IMPRESSED with the plot twist and end.
