I couldn't put this down. There's quite a bit of suspension of disbelief, especially in the resolution, but it's a wild ride. I liked Bel and how prickly she was; a bit different than the typically YA protagonist. The framing of the documentary was also an interesting angle and led to some unique situations. I love Holly Jackson and will read everything she writes!
I also liked the use of a late night McDonalds trip as a little nod to As Good as Dead.
