1000/5!!!, In fact, I’m writing this post in my notes before you’re reading it because this book was THAT good. I don’t want to forget the heart pounding, toe curling feeling I’m having, I want it to be stamped in time. Always visceral in my memory., As I’ve said before, this book remained unopened for MONTHS. No fault of the book, I just developed a bad habit of purchasing books and leaving them until I had the time to read (spoiler alert, I never did have the time). Anyway, can I just say, the suspense. The tension. How soon we jump right into the story was so delicious! I didn’t ravage this book and finished in one day or two. No, it took me closer to a week to read it. I was trying to solve a murder after all and that’s not done overnight., I actually felt so distressed at the injustice surrounding Sal’s accusation and eventual death. It made me want to continue, to see those who vilified him after all that time eat their, words, and though it didn’t play out like that, it was a little reprieve. Though I’m still saddened., The writing was spectacular. And Pip’s diary entries wrapped me so much into the story, it was like watching a movie. I only hated the stereotypical throw caution to the wind that the character always managed to do. Find someone pedaling drugs? Go to their home at night and confront them with the evidence. Gets threats? Walks her dog in the middle of the night. A little far fetched and unreasonable in my head. Especially when she went around accusing people who could very well be evil not once or twice but more times than I could count. Pip’s self preservation skills left a lot to be desired., The reveal had me slapping my hand over my mouth in disbelief. What worked for this book is that there were so many suspects, someone may have fallen through the cracks. And a mystery fiend like me, I LOVED being stumped. It was sooo good. Especially when the mystery kept on giving. And reveal after reveal. Bits and pieces came together., And as mentioned at the end of the book, and what I noticed. There were still gaps. Other factors are at play. And we may never understand fully. But what if we can?, This one has broken my rating scale and I will love everything about it for a long time!

This book was an unexpected read for me. I read it for a local book club, and didn’t know what it was about when I started. The author chose a unique perspective by which to tell the story, and I found it to be a great way to lead readers on the journey. The characters were well developed, and the plot had many twists and turns. I appreciated the use of diagrams and the frequent Recaps to keep me on track with what was happening., The author tied up the mystery fairly quickly toward the end, and I was a bit surprised with the ending. I loved it though. I would highly recommend this book if you enjoy Mysteries, good characters, and a unique storyline. I will be looking for other books by this author because I enjoyed the writing style.

This book is amazing. It kept my attention from the first page, and I couldn’t stop reading until the the very last. I *highly* recommend this book–such an intriguing, fast-paced story all around (I immediately bought the second and third books in the trilogy afterwards, I would suggest you doing the same). The characters and their relationships, the plot, the setting, the emotions, the SUSPENSE–all of it was there, and it did not disappoint. You will not regret this reading this!

Spoilers. Ok. I knew she was involved with Mr Ward very early on. Kinda disappointed I was right. Had that been the end of it I think it would be a 2 star. But the twists and turns were welcome! Also not so sure how I feel about parents encouraging and/or looking the other way as kids had drinking parties where they knew they were getting ugly drunk., I liked Pip. Seems she got in a little too far without asking her parents for help. But she was likable, a loyal friend, a good person. Enjoyed the read.

I really enjoyed this book. I just started reading books and was looking for something other than romance because that’s what I generally go for. And this one was really entertaining and suspenseful and had me trying to figure it out up until the end highly recommend! Can’t wait To read the next two books!
