a truly beautifully plotted thriller book. it has a really different tone to the first book, but in a very good way. it was more dark and mysterious, and focuses on Pip’s mental health and

survivors guilt

after

Stanley’s death and the guilt she fells not being able to save him

This was a really good book. It hooked me from start to finish and it kept me on my toes. The plot twist truly got me, but then again, I’m not great at guessing plot twists.

The development of Pip and Ravi’s relationship 🥹🥹🥹. So cute.

very predictable as was the first one. at least we got to see a little more of pippa's personality. it was a fun read but that's basically it. im not sure why everyone keeps saying there are a lot of plot twists because there really isnt. also PLEASE PLEASE stop with the pop culture references, its embarrassing.
