I really really liked that book π€©
At the beginning I was a little bit unsure, tbh, but when the book really begun, it became so tense and I couldn't stop reading it π€©
The plot was also so so shocking, and I can't wait to read the 2nd one π

Das war ein richtig richtig gutes Buch π Ich fand jedes einzelne Kapitel so spannend und man musste einfach immer weiter lesen π Der Plot-twist am Ende war extrem unerwartet und so schockierend fΓΌr mich (kurz am Anfang vom Buch hatte ich kurz die Idee, dass es die Person ist, die es ist, aber da habe ich sehr schnell gedacht, dass die doch nicht stimmt und dann war das Ende umso schockierender fΓΌr mich π± Ich dachte echt, dass sie jeden Moment den "echten" Namen der Person sagen, dass die Person vielleicht doch anders heiΓt oder so, aber nein π© Ich hΓ€tte nicht gedacht, dass mich ein Buch-Charakter so tΓ€uschen konnte... ππ
π΅) . Ich fand es auch super, wie kurz die Kapitel waren und ich fand es toll, dass es am Rand so viel Platz fΓΌr Notizen gibt π Ich werde dieses Buch auf jeden Fall nochmal lesen und wΓΌrde das Buch auch jedem empfehlen, der gerne Krimis liest π

It was a good book, but idk... it wasn't really my kind of book π
π
It was funny and the story all in all was good and cute but for me it was in the first 13 chapters a little bit boring, tbh... Everything went just really slow. Though then from chapter 17 until the end, I really started to like it very much π . I can understand why some people loved the book, but it just wasn't all in all a book for me

Idk... It wasn't the worst book I had to read for school, but neither the best... It had some good quotes but apart from that... I have absolutely nothing to say about it π€·πΌββοΈ

It's such a good book! π
It was so funny and I really enjoyed reading it π
The book was in every second so so good and there are so many plots. These plots make just so much sense and then you totally understand, why a character was this way, in that situation and that way, in this situation.
In this book there are some sad parts, but these parts are very short and normally I don't like sad parts in books, but somehow Angie Hockman managed to make me like even that moments.
(The following paragraph maybe has a little spoiler... π¬)
I also really enjoyed their connection between Henley and Graeme and that their connection has some time to build up.
The whole book was just a feelgood book and I really really liked it π
I definitely will reread this book several times and want to read more of Angie Hockman's books.
Btw: I would be so so happy, if there would be a sequel to this book, that's maybe about Walsh, Christina or Tory π I would buy it immediately

It was so boring πͺ I was half finished with the book and it happened not very much. There were so many unnecessary chapters... π (btw, I read it in German)
