At first I wasn't too sure about the story because I found I didn't really like the main character. Wow, am I happy I continued with the story! The author did an amazing job at making many characters look guilty and to even make the reader question whether any of it was even real! The book ends with the biggest twist. I loved the story and couldn't put it down.

Huge twist!
