Holy crap. Without giving any spoilers, I don’t remember the last time a book literally made me gasp as much as this book did. It had me hooked from the beginning cause I love a book with generational trauma cause, relatable. Also I loved the setting and it’s a perfect summer book. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Read this if you have the chance.

No, I didn’t really like this book. I also loathe them being called The Liars.

I did not enjoy this book. It’s the book you take with you on a weekend to the beach, not bad but not good either.

Yes, there is a central conflict almost interesting enough to keep you just interested enough to soldier on but it leaves you with something to be desired.

Because the book was very confusing to understand and the characters were annoying. And nothing made sense I had to read a page like 5 times to understand anything.
