5.0

Really good book with unexpected ending

I never saw the ending to this one coming! It was unexpected and very twisted. This book made me want to read more of this author!

This was a quick read, an escape from more serious reading while sheltering in place. Two 8th grade girls, who had been neighbors since they were very young, have a typical middle school, adolescent relationship where one day they are friends, the next day they hate each other. Over the summer one of the girls, Cynthia, comes up with a plan to stage her disappearance and kidnapping in a bid to keep from being sent to boarding school. She enlists her friend and neighbor, Molly, who has her own agenda. Only things go terribly wrong and one girl ends up dead. Is it Cynthia or Molly? Now, 30 years later the murderer is receiving notes from someone claiming to know her past. This book had twists and turns I did not see coming. While I don’t generally care for thrillers this one kept my attention.

Wow

Fast read. Thought I would predict where the book was going but I didn't see all the twists coming. Short and entertaining.

A short quick afternoon read.

It was a great read, though a bit shorter than I would've liked... The plot twist was executed quite well.

The start was a bit juvenile and I almost stopped reading, but it got better. A bit slower than I prefer, and there were some editing errors that I found distracting. I also didn't like the ending.

This is easily the best book I've ever read the characters were incredible and the plot twists just kept coming I have honestly never read a book like this before I couldn't predict what was going to happen and every time I tried the plot would change. Everyone should read this book. Phenomenal!
