5.0
It really pulled off the fast-pacedness well….. but I felt like the author could’ve left some room for character development (like SHOWING it instead of telling….. felt like the emotions of the moment could’ve been more described in some places; the romance kind of snuck up on me….. but I FELT it coming - so as long as it’s more described in the next books, I’ll be fine)
5.25🌟 (second on all-time fave bookshelf, after TCP)

Not THAT noticeable for some things…. (Some characters are racist - but not the main ones) Note: it has a lot of talk of death and murder (talking of HOW people were murdered)kyriannaj's review against another edition

What I Liked
- It was a quick read.
- Liked the different format of it. Made the book go by quickly.
- the plot twist was interesting at the end…saw some of it coming, but not really!
- Liked the duo of Pip and Ravi.
What I didn’t like
- though i liked the plot twist, i wasn’t super sold on Becca as the killer. It felt a little anti-climatic to be totally honest.
- No need to kill the dog…just sad for sad’s sake
- also comparing it to losing Sal…a little bit of a yikes there
