⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

A complicated neighborhood drama where everyone has secrets & no one seems to be honest about anything. This one has a few too many characters who ultimately didn’t add to the story & the major aha moment had so much potential but fell amazingly flat once it was revealed. The premise is so good but the execution didn’t work for me.
