a bit cliche/obvious about who ends up being the killer, but not too bad of a book. it was a bit too similar to The Hunting Party, which i have read before this book, so that’s probably why it was quite easy to guess who the murderer was. also didn’t like how they had Liz sort of hella change near the end of the book and how she sort of did a 180 and was like not shy or nervous all of a sudden.

Loved the suspense and I was falling for every red herring! I think I like a few other Ruth Ware novels better, so I ranked this one a smidgen lower just to reflect that. 

I just think the scenes following the Big Reveal felt a bit awkward and didn't really pull the ending together how I was expecting. Still great for the mystery and suspense though!

Good. Enjoyed. Don’t have much to say about this one - it was a fun journey but I feel like I’m going to forget about it. Cool setting.
