I wish I would have read content/trigger warnings before reading this book. It’s very fast paced and a fun mystery. I love the twist at the end!

It’s a really good read but i rated it 4 stars because i had such high expectations since everyone’s saying how this book has a huge plot twist and how it makes them feel nauseous when reading and stuff. Didn’t really feel nauseous OR that surprised at the end, i expected it.
