I never regret reading books, even if they are bad. But I wouldn’t be sad if I never read this book. The beginning was good. It felt like it was going to be a book I enjoyed. But it went down hill very fast. The ending felt unsatisfying and the book was way too long for what it had on it. By the halfway point the storyline became very repetitive. The book could’ve been half the size and been way better. Also, it didn’t help that none of the characters were very likeable. The story is in first person, and listening to the main character’s thoughts gets tiring very fast. She judges everyone and keeps mentioning how everyone is so mean to her and how she needs better friends. None of the other characters made it any better. We don’t get to learn anything about them, which makes it hard to care when their secrets are threatened. Also, two characters randomly have sex. It’s a young adult book. I don’t know, very weird. I wouldn’t recommend this book. Unless you want to read about stupid teenage drama, unlikeable characters with some stupid mystery thrown in. Or just stop reading half way through.
