This book was giving me serious Gossip Girl/Pretty little liars vibes, I did enjoy reading this however there were just a few elements I thought let the book down.

I really enjoyed the writing, and the multiple POVs and timelines really gave you a deeper understanding of the plot and I felt that they were written well. I did find the chapters to be abit lengthily and I found the first half of the book dragged but it did pick up and become more interesting in the 2nd half. I also think the whole book could have been maybe 100/150 pages less. This is the longest book I’ve read so far (504 pages) which kinda put me in a slump!

The only characters I really liked were Drew and Leo. Charlie’s character was interesting but I agree with her guidance counsellor about being narcissistic so I didn’t like her all that much! 

I wasn’t a fan of the exclusive club the “A’s”.. I found the entire concept and the things they did incredibly childish and petty which kinda let the book down. I think they could have removed this concept entirely. I was disappointed with the ending because I wanted more closure and details about what happened to Charlie’s friends after the revelations, however this was just skipped over.

Overall, it’s an easy read and has some good mystery elements, I found it to be more YA focused which isn’t really my cup of tea.
