This did not read like a Ruth Ware book. There was something about it that felt off for me. I loved the bones of the story, the actual plot was wonderful and I love a good mystery that keeps you guessing until the end. However, this book was a little scattered for me. The first third was difficult to follow, the middle got very bogged down with scenery details and the end flew past at an alarming speed, making the pacing of this book off. I also wished there would have been more solid transitions on flashbacks to the girls school days.

Overall, it was a good book. Although the writing didn't come across as Ruth Ware the story did and she has a way of coming up with intricate and fun mysteries.
