Holly Jackson, you brilliant genius, you've done it again.
At first I was hesitant to read this book - I absolutely loved the first in the trilogy and was worried that maybe the second wouldn't live up to the hype. Boy have I never been more happy to be wrong. This book somehow SURPASSED my expectations and left me feeling so much more than AGGGTM did after reading it. I found myself smiling, laughing, crying, and sitting with my jaw dropped at various points in time.
“Good and bad didn't matter here. There were only winners. And he only won if she let him. That was justice.”
I am so glad I picked this book up and I am ecstatic that I have one more book in the trilogy to look forward to. Onto the next adventure!

Now that I have read the first book in this series, I found that I really like Holly's writing style. I was wondering what would happen in this book when I first picked it up, and I kept trying to find out who did it with Pip. This book is so good.

This YA mystery/thriller is surprisingly fun and exciting! Excited to finish the series.
