ANYWAYSSS
It’s entirely possible that I just don’t like Ruth Ware’s writing. This book’s friend group sucked ass (not a moral in sight betwixt them) and not one of them had any reasonable consequences for their actions. I don’t understand the heavily understated obsession with practical jokes or why no one just mollywopped April one good time. There were a lot of red herrings but the ultimate twist was boring and unsurprising.

I loved the usage of third person in this book--it was so well written that I actually still felt like I was reading from Hannah's perspective, without first person.
I also truly could not have guessed the outcome of this book.
The only reason why I won't give this book 5 stars is because I feel like the buildup was a little too slow for my taste. I would love to reread this book knowing the outcome so I could try to play detective and see more clues, but alas it was a little slow and there are too many other books in the world that I am dying to read!! and now I'm gonna go pick up some more thrillers ;-) byeeee
