OMG??? The ending?? I did figure out who the other Anon person behind the Truth or Dare game was but what happened after that was genuinely just wow! Can’t wait to see what the next book in the trilogy has in store for everyone from this book and the first one.

Personally I didn't like this one as much as the first book until the very end because I just disliked all the characters so I just couldn't get into it. I think this author is just not for me and I should just stick the the tv adaption but i will be giving the next book a read.
