I read this book immediately after "The girls I've been". I found it underwhelming on the crime and thriller side, but sweet and redemptive concerning the development and full conversation about sub-abuse and trauma.

Talking about opioid addiction, especially in teens, is often a taboo subject. I'm glad this book is here, to not shy away from the difficult issues, but also not make it the sole point of the book.

Warning: this book will break you. Heartbreak is coming. I said I wanted a sad book to make me cry and now I have regrets.
It wasn’t fair. It’s not fair. It feels too real. 😭
Sophie and Mina, I love you.😭❤️

This book was so incredible, I don't even know where to begin. Though the blurb alerts us to Minas death her characters presence is still felt throughout the whole book and makes her loss so heartbreaking. The character development from so many different characters is so remarkable and suspense is built thoroughly throughout. The book deals with some heavy subject matter and I advise reading trigger warnings before picking the book up but I think the book deals with them with respect. The writing is amazing and you simply cannot put the book down. This is my second book by Tess Sharpe and I am obsessed with her writing style and will definitely look to picking up more from her. Overall the characters, plot, pacing and ending were so good and the book contrasts heartwarming moments with heartbreaking moments so well.
