what a story omg this book goes from plot twist to plot twist and it’s like we, readers, become part of the game and we try to resolve it with the characters 
and the foreshadow of the end!!!
i need the second book like right now i need to know what happens next

Loved the mystery and the puzzles. The main character was pretty annoying at times, and I absolutely despised the recurring fake cursing that was her best friend’s trademark.

Read in a day, roughly 10hrs, (a new record for me, with a first time read). This book is super entertaining and a fast read, I read it In pretty much 3 sittings. All the chapters follow on like a movie there’s really no page you can put the book down on. The characters are extremely loveable and the plot intriguing
