It was constant with riddles and mysteries, which were mind binding and gripping. Everything was thought out right from the beginning, with Avery’s full name and the Hawthorne brothers middle names.
Jennifer Lynn Barnes is extremely clever for thinking of this story and the different riddles involved. The thought and time spent on this book definitely paid of.
The characters were all unique, as they each had very different personalities, which made each character special in some way or other.
I thought that the writing of the book was quite simple and it could have been developed a bit more to add extra detail that would have got our imaginations moving a bit more. I also loved the fact that the chapters were short:)
Moderate: Confinement, Death, Gun violence, Grief, Alcohol, and Injury/Injury detail

Finally deciding to read booktok books this year. This did not disappoint.
I decided to listen to the audiobook on Spotify during my roadtrip to Toronto. Needless to say I was thoroughly entertained.
Need A fast pace novel to hopefully get you out of a reading slump? Then I recommend listening to this one. It also has sequels if you end up loving it.
Grayson or Jameson? That is the question everyone is asking themselves. Which one should end up with Avery? And I’ll offer you the only correct answer. None of the above. Avery describing Rebecca as beautiful and gorgeous every time she saw her is a little fruity. The alternative would be Grayson and Avery. As for Jameson, he belongs with me 😃
