  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

[Tokyo Toni voice] Well, yes!

Ohh, this book... Firstly, I love the inclusion of the "evidence" and drawings that Pip accumulates throughout her investigation. Secondly, I love Pip's character; not only is she passionate and driven, but she voices insecurities and has fallacies. It's so refreshing having a main character's experience that has good qualities and some questionable ones too. Brava, Holly Jackson. 

Extremely well-written, kept me guessing the entire way through. I found myself immersed in the story and completely gripped with who did what and how the story would play out. Twisty, dark, suspenseful, with dashes of togetherness, kindness, and hope. Love, love, love!
