This was a fast-paced young-adult mystery/thriller.  Seeing how they changed it from a book set in England to one here in the states was amusing.

3.0

a poor version of the game life is strange (man, I will play it again sometime)

obs to future me, when deciding to read the rest of the series 

- until 85%, it was amazing, so intertainig and catching 

- since the beginnin I knew what was up with ravi and it was bad

- it didn't sumarize all the gossip properly at the end, which makes me mad, that's an ick 

- I didn't like the final reveal, the book build up to something better, it had no flavor (and even sense?) to me

- if the main caracther had a song it would be 🎶dumb ways to die🎶

- the book has questionable morals (lying to keep personal interests, promoting no respect to law...)

Really great mystery and nice that it was not a predictable end. In the beginning a little hard to keep up with all the characters. In the ebook version the different fonts were not the best...

This book is amazing the plot just never sits still and the characters are so believable and unique and I just loved it , however for some people this may be very triggering but if you do decide to read it I’m sure you’ll enjoy the story xx
