Loved loved loved reading this book. Pip's behavioural changes throughout the book leading to the book's climax was shocking but looking at it back, it isn't out of character. The way Holly Jackson has connected all the three books together is insane

It was a darker sequel to the first book. I liked the plot and the ending was really good. The book was also more heart-wrenching than the earlier one. Highly recommended!

Love this book maybe even more then the first one. I listened it on Spotify but now I'm through my listening hours so I have to wait till next month to listen to the next book!! Love this series so much! Not my usual genre (that's why I listen to the audiobooks) but love it soooo much!
