I bought this on a whim to make up the total in an online order so I qualified for a discount, but of all the books I bought it was the one I read first in the end because the premise sounded fun! Breakfast Club murder mystery, what's not to love.

I liked all the characters way more than I expected to, especially Bronwyn, and even though I had an inkling of the ending before it happened I wasn't disappointed that I'd guessed correctly because it was so much fun to read! 

I look forward to reading all the other books in the series!
