First, hated the ending.

It felt like the author just gave up on the story, and it didn't read at all like a mysterious ambiguous choice.

Second, like the other book I read by this author, the premise is really promising, but the execution doesn't work. It doesn't seem like she knows what a meme is as opposed to a social media trend. And these kids skip school WAY too much for the current technological age. It's just not realistic. I think I need to move onto another author. Also too many people died again for me to really try to care about each one. I feel like the author gets away with not digging into deep emotion by just killing another character. So the characters have murder whiplash instead of facing their grief and fear.

this was the worst book ive ever read. idea was great, terribly executed. this author should NOT write teenager POV anymore, she is far too out of touch. The book itself could have saved like 50% of repetitive thoughts/dialogue. this was so painful. i hate it so much. stop telling this author shes good.

A tad bit predictable, but it did not make the book ANY LESS SHOCKING. THE LAST FEW PAGES?! I have no words.. I did not expect that ending. I stared at the last page for about five minutes after I finished reading it… I just. I cannot. That is all.

If you’ve read any of her books, you know how frustrating the endings can be. That being said, I can’t stop reading all the books she has in this style. I very much enjoy the writing and pace of the books!
