"Without Monday, I felt ruined too" (pg 25).

Okay, the alternating timelines are either going to endear you or annoy you. Sometimes, it's utterly frustrating to understand the full picture of a previous event. But for me, I didn't mind. I enjoyed the mystery aspect, and the slice-of-life elements of Claudia's life, her family, Michael (for the most part), and dance. The ending was dark and chilling. I felt like I had a gut-punch.

Anyway, I generally enjoy light-hearted reads, but this is a realistic fiction that deserves to be on your shelf.

I loved the progression of Claudia's writing after her dyslexia diagnosis. When you see her final journal entry, you wanna cry like a proud mom."
