˗ˏˋ ★ REVIEW ★ ˎˊ˗

I didn’t really like this book as much as the others.  It’s getting a bit dragged out and the fact the killer has stayed quiet this long is a bit weird.  I have an idea of who the killer is at this point.  Looking at it from a writer's POV it would make the stories much more interesting to make it the one person Emma trusts—someone who knows she isn’t Sutton.  Ethan would have more than enough motive to kill Sutton and he had been acting off near the end of this book, he’s definitely on the list of people that it could be.
