3.75

i was going back and forth between 3.75 and 4 stars but went with the former because the ending was a little bit underwhelming for me. i feel like i enjoyed the first 50% of the book more than the last half, even though i was having a hard time keeping up with all the characters they introduced in the beginning. 
i’m torn because lowkey james deserved what happened to him, but i felt so sorry for amanda and her getting roped in without knowing the backstory. i feel bad for shay too, despite her being pretty naive. i felt like the only character i truly liked was sean lol
still a solid read from this duo albeit my least fave i’ve read so far from them.

This is such a good thriller/mystery book this was my first greer hendricks book and I absolutely loved it, the story was really well written and I felt like I was along on this journey. Page 323 please take care of yourself I was hoping trey  would get murdered. We got to see that shay wasn't the only one at the station when Amanda killed herself this book definitely will have you on the edge of your seat and I can't recommend it enough.
