They were not good liars at all. In fact, this entire book is centered around just how bad four teenagers who find a million in cash are at lying, and the consequences of their spending sprees. There seemed to be one bad decision after another, and at over 400 pages long, I was tearing my hair out by the end of it.
Layla was easily my favourite character of the four POVs, her love for her family and little brother made her the most selfless character, and her choices made sense to me. I liked Kai well enough, but found Fliss vapid and Liam lacked depth, as his life seemed to center around his boyfriend.
The ending had a lot of twists and turns, each one more ridiculous than the last. Major villain reveals, presidential rubber masks, even more scheming to steal what was left of the money, none of it felt like it was worth the time it took to get there.
