First time I've listened to a book on 3x speed. The writing isn't bad, but I'm just not a fan of crime books. I'm not a fan of true crime in general. The book takes place in about two weeks and yet still feels slow, probably because of descriptions of things like "I get up ready for the day, I brush my hair thinking about who the murderer could be, I get in my car to drive to a person who might be the murderer," and so on. Just not very exciting, but that seems to be all crime books. But I didn't hate the book so I rated higher to account for my bias.

Typical Bailey Weggins mystery book and I loved it! Kate White's books always keep you interested and leave you feeling tense throughout as the story progresses which is a lot of fun. Definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants a good, engaging mystery to read. Pretty quick read, as well...I read it in one sitting. Can't wait for more (hopefully!) books from Kate White :)

I found this story engaging, and it was my first Bailey Wiggens novel. The answer(s) to the mystery seems a little random and soap-opera-esque but within the outer limits of reasonable.

This was a good mystery book! I like how each chapter leaves you hanging, needing to read the next. I thought for sure in the beginning that the boyfriend was going to end up being connected to the murders!! I like how it ended with Bailey and the boyfriend. I had no idea how the book was going to end until Blake called asking her to come over and not tell anyone! All in all, I really enjoyed it. Read it in less than 2 weeks!

I really thought this book was going to be a 5 star rating but the ending totally ruined it for me. I loved everything up until it started to become clear how it would end, and it felt like the ending didn’t match up with the way the story had been going at all.
