Can you rate a book 1,000,000 stars? Because I have never wanted to more. This is the best mystery I have ever read (and I’m not exaggerating) and I’m not sure I’ve ever hugged a book this hard in my life. The ending was incredible and you were with Stevie nearly every step of the way. I’m in love and my body is tingling so much that this is difficult to type. AMAZING

3.5/5 I enjoyed this whole series! I was annoyed by how long it took to read each book, but my interest was kept through each one, and I am happy i read it. Some flaws, but still a great read!

Such a great wrap up. I was a bit surprised by the ending. I loved every minute of this book though. Fantastically intense.

David needs therapy. That’s all I have to say.

Some things don't quite add up...
why would charles admit stevie to the school when he knew she was super into the ellingham case and wanted to solve it? Seems like a stupid thing to do if you want to hide the fact that you have Alice's body? Even if he didn't expect her to solve it (eventhough he activly helped her with that???)it seems like an unnecessary risk and kinda dumb

Still don't like stevie and David, the rest of the cast is cool tho
