I've been on a bit of a prep school reading kick lately and let me tell you, I'm not mad about it!

Layden was super clever in how she handled the multiple points of views of her characters. There are nine students giving their perspectives in real time and each chapter covers a different student. I was impressed by this uniqueness in writing style.

With that being said, for me, this book was "okay." As much as I enjoyed the multiple POVs, it started to read more like a compilation of short stories.

Not a bad thing! Just different.

Also, the underlying plot point throughout the whole book was a rape allegation resurfacing against one of the male teachers and a student who attended the school 20 years earlier. As important it is to shed light on these types of issues, I'm not sure the delivery was totally there and I couldn't tell if this was a thriller or simply YA fiction.

I encourage you to check out the description and if it sounds like something you'd like, read it!

⚠️ If rape, molestation, or #MeToo is a trigger for you, I would not recommend this book for you.
