5.0

This book is old money, it’s rags to to riches, it’s a non frustrating love triangle, it’s will they/won’t they, it’s twists and tricks and puzzles, it’s a guessing game, it’s strategic, it’s un-put-down-able. It’s a need to read for any YA mystery lover.

I LOVED THIS BOOK!

I have no idea why it’s not a five star read for me, but I just don’t have that attachment that I normally feel to the book that I have given 5 stars to. I think that might be because it’s a YA read. Don’t get me wrong. This is a great book but it was an easy and enjoyable read.

Est-ce le meilleur livre que j’ai lu? Non mais merde qu’est-ce que c’était bien en vrai. J’étais en mode WoW et cette fin. On se prend vite au jeu (sans mauvais jeux de mots). Bref, je lirai clairement la suite. Je ne pense pas l’acheter mais l’emprunter à la bibliothèque. Bref on verra ce que ça donne. 

Merci à NetGalley France et Lizzie pour m’avoir permis d’écouter une version audio du livre contre une review honnête
