Cassie is a mess but in the lovable sense. It’s refreshing to follow a protagonist who’s kind of falling apart the same way we are. This book is, funnily enough, a great airplane read. It’s not a work of high art, but it is a page turner of a mystery. My only complaint is how quickly things wrapped up. We spent so much time asking questions with Cassie and the second we got an answer- boom it was over. But I enjoyed it.
