Had a hard time getting into this story. I was not invested at all and honestly didn't really care for its characters. Margot especially was too bitter and I just couldn't understand or relate to her. The whole book is filled with toxic relationships and characters

Such a great book to truly get lost in! I started reading this book and had such a hard time putting it down, because I fell in love with the story and its characters. I just wanted to keep on reading to find out the truth! I loved how the focus was on the mystery part and on family, with no romance at all!
