emma6544's review against another edition
However, the book felt bland and I didn’t like the constant switching between past and present timelines. I thought the main character Hannah was bland and her relationship with April was meant to be best friends but I felt that Hannah was more fond of April than Hannah. I ended up googling the killer once I decided to DNF and it wasn’t a huge shock to me.
If you like the idea of exploring a friendship group and their dynamics from Oxford, I would highly recommend The Hunting Party by Lucy Foley. You follow multiple characters POVs (whose characters are explored in much more depth) and the past timelines you get are sparse but they play a significant role in the story.
