Holy shit. Holy shit. Holy shit. And here I was, thinking Holly couldn’t write an even more awesome book. The twists and turns this book took were just something else. No wonder she said this was her favorite. Though I did start looking around my room for any hidden cameras cuz Bel was just a little too much relatable in my opinion. Also the way you think this is just a me vs her thing and then it turns into a story about mothers and daughters and the bonds between them? Ugh, I love it.

Another amazing book by Holly Jackson!! I had such a fun time reading this, and it felt like I was reading Good Girl, Bad Blood again! The Beginning was a bit slow, but the last 40% was unpredictable and had me screaming and crying for Bel.

I will be recommending this to everyone I know!!

never has there ever been a Holly Jackson book that hasn’t been incredible. this one had me on the edge of tears at the end. I genuinely didn’t know how it was going to end and things did shock me, which is hard when you have read as many crime thriller books as I have

Holly Jackson will always be the queen of writing ‘I killed the people who hurt me and now I need to hide the body’
