This was another read where I started it and got sucked in quickly! It was a fast read so if you’re looking for something quick this might be the read for you. I liked Melody the most thought she was really strong beyond what she had been through. I do wish we got more of her and Brooke - but understand why we didn’t. Their friendship just seemed so cute! Also Melody is a plus size FMC so I adore those whenever I am able to come across them.
Though this book contains dark themes I appreciate when it came to certain topics and moments in the story it wasn’t too dark. And the ending…my guess’s were wrong and I really wast expecting it - in a good way!! Liked the mystery before the big reveal and how along the way it wasn’t too obvious. I think that was done very tastefully. Please, check trigger warnings before read this story.
Overall, enjoyed this read and recommend you grab a copy!
