It has been a while I could not put a book down because the plot kept getting better and better. The plot twists, the secrets and the mystery within the story that happens in the span of just one night was crazy. Such an interesting novel!
The characters are well-built and I hated Oliver with my whole heart and I didn't like Red as much. This is not a spoiler you would hate him right away you start reading the book as well.
Also, I could kind of figure out the characters who were keeping the secrets before the story ended (this is probably because I watch too many crime/mystery shows, nothing could suprise me anymore) However the secrets and how they are all connected the story behind it I give full credits to the author for executing it perfectly and making me take this book to the toilet with me and even when I ate. It has been a while since I read a long book in one sitting.
There were definitely parts where you would feel too confidential or too unrealistic But this being a YA book and also a mystery novel, I wouldn't see that as a downfall but rather a necessity for the story.
