Rejoice! For I have finally managed to crack the case before the truth was revealed!!! 💡 It's like a game to me at this point whenever I pick up a Freida McFadden book, to try and guess who the culprit is. So far, it always comes out of left field so I am absolutely ecstatic I saw this one coming. 🤩 To be fair, I think lots of people did but hey, a win is a win. 🎊

I think out of all the Freida McFadden books I've read, this was probably the most fun I had. While the writing lacked the normal depth I'm used to in her books, the humour and the amount of chaos and craziness made up for it. I was having a blast watching Blake go nuts.🤭 It was so much fun watching how everything had been plotted, planned and executed. 

However, I think the book could have wrapped up nicely without the extra mini plot twist at the end. It felt contrived, unnecessary and personally, it took away from the story we already had. 🥲 So that lowered my rating slightly. 

Overall, it was still a very fun read 🩷
