I was so surprised by how much I loved this book! Going in I found several of the characters insufferable due to their adherence to stereotypes, but as the story unfolded, the story diverged from the standard tropes. The story explored the biases we all hold, our motivations to lie, toxic relationships, and the incompetence of police. It’s a wonderful book that I would recommend to anyone from teens to adults!
