This was pretty fun lol. I really loved the writing of this one. It was observational and mesmerising. It read more like a mystery than this author's usual whodunnit-thrillers because here the protagonist wasn't actively trying to solve the case but rather twists were slowly unfolding pretty much on their own. I absolutely adored all the complicated family dynamics.
I wasn't too shocked by the big reveal but I didn't completely see it coming either so that's that.
Overall: totally would recommend. Check it out to get your fill of YA thrillers.

AAAHHHHH I REALLY LIKED THIS
I love this book to the moon and back. The mental illness rep is just...chef's kiss. Eliza is such a relatable character for so many different reasons. I loved the web comic, the writing, the characters and the relationships between them (also internet friendships!!! my heart is soaring!!!). The family dynamic was really realistic, at least to me, who pretty much hates her family lol.
What I didn't like was how Wallace acted in the last act of this book. It really drove me mad. Fuck that shit. I was really rooting for him up until he went ahead and pulled that BS :/

this was actually really fun and ridiculous. i enjoyed it quite a bit. i have so many funny moments highlighted!!??
BUT. charlie grant is def one of the most annoying mcs i have ever read about. the way she behaved really got on my last nerves.??
anyhoo jj is clearly the superior sibling!! OH AND RODNEY LOML

I actually really liked this book and no one is more surprised than me at this fucking miracle.??
This book was...much funnier than I expected it to be. Unexpected would be a good word to describe it, actually. Sure, it was also at times predictable and seemed to follow the formula that a lot of YA thrillers follow, but I'm not really complaining.??
My one criticism would be that I wish I'd connected to the characters a bit more, but other than that, this book was like a fresh breath of air in that you need to experience it to enjoy it (duh). It was also really diverse which I'm happy about and it does talk about the privileges cis-het white men enjoy, that I really fucking loved. Oh, and the last line made me gasp out loud.??
Overall, a really solid thriller!??
