My thoughts;
THIS BOOK WAS SO GOOD!!! again I already said this a million times but Holly NEVER disappoints!!!!!
This book was so so much better than the other mystery books I've read so far. It kept me hooked from the very start- and that's the very reason i finished it in 2 days ππ«±πΌβπ«²π» the mystery flowed throughout the book, i went intl this one blank and knowing nothing about it, but i trusted holly and just bought it anyways!! Also the character development was middish- okay-ish in my opinion. I kind of didnt like red in the start but the way Holly described and expressed her mind, emotions and backstory trauma throughout the book, i was truly rooting for her. I hate Oliver so much, and Maddy was such a good bestfriend for me in the beginning of the book, but idk why i just started to hate her when i read further. As It was only one-pov from reds side, i didn't get to know the other characters back story, ( that's also one of the very reasons I want a second book for this !! [ knowing it won't come but ππ ] )
The book in my opinion kind of ended in a cliffhanger, and that's why I need to know reds answer!! ( iykyk )
Overall, i really really loved this book!!
