I had heard a lot about this book, so that may have made my expectations too high. I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the novel, and the author used a lot of great imagery to immerse the reader in the environment. However, I struggled to connect to the main character once she began getting older. I love a good twist ending, but the ending on this one made me feel like something was lacking. The story didn't feel like it earned the ending it got. Overall I'm glad to have read it, but I won't be returning to this one again.
A fun YA novel that has some definite ties to stories like The Westing Game and Knives Out. I've read other novels by this author so the basic character felt similar to her other narrators, but overall the story was engaging and fun. I was not a fan of the love triangle, as I don't usually see a point to them, but overall this was an entertaining book and I'll definitely check out the next one!
I felt like I saw where this book was going about 30 pages in, but it was still entertaining enough to keep me reading. A pretty cool concept overall and interesting characters, even with a pretty predictable ending.
