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.

    I can’t say much for the plot, since it took me forever to read this book. If you’re coming from One Of Us Is Lying, just be aware it’s a very different set of characters with the same good writing. I had trouble relating to the characters, so I didn’t enjoy it as much. The ending seemed kind of thrown together, but like I said it took me three or four months so I didn’t get the full effect. Still an okay book, just not my favorite.
