interesting plot that had me hooked from the start. sure it was kind of easy to guess the twist, personally I enjoy how we get to that point. 
the only thing for me was the writing, it felt more like a YA book at times such as scenes with her love interest. Nothing wrong with YA books but this is not marketed as such so sometimes I felt like I was reading YA romance due to the wordings and descriptions. 
I really did enjoyed the discussion on the ‘perfect victim’, very true and unfortunately always relevant.

I usually don’t read crime books, I absolutely loved this one. The story and characters kept me hooked the whole time. And I loved the little romance that was thrown in there. I would read this again!

This book was great! Was into it enough that I read it really fast, but my only complaint that prevented me from giving it a full 5 stars is that I predicted who the killer was, it was pretty obvious. Otherwise, loved this book!

my mom recommended me this as a fast thriller, which it is! the sense of humor was definitely not for me; the millennial sarcasm fell flat for me and the pop culture references just felt out of place. the mystery was interesting enough, though sometimes it was hard to take the narrator’s voice in her head seriously, especially at first. the ending was definitely a surprise! for me, this was mid overall but fun to read
