  • Plot twist

    This was a really good book. Overall this book is about trauma and how it affects people differently. I think it was an insightful book and most definitely a bit creepy. But good creepy, something you didn’t expect.
  • Saddest plot twist

    This book kept me guessing the entire time. When I thought I knew what happened I was caught off guard by something different. 10/10 recommend.

    Kept me hooked from page 1 … whoa is really all I can say. Best advice is to go in completely blind.

    I thought this would be a great read since my friend reccomended it to me and i trusted her judgement. But, i ended up not enjoying it since the characters didnt really have personalities, for example the main characters biggest personality trait was that she suffered from migraines. As someone who has migraines i thought that this would be relatable, but no, it truly wasnt. Another reason i didnt enjoy the book was because the “plot twist” was really not that surprising, i guessed it halfway through the book but thought it would ruin the story. In summary, the whole book is just about some rich priviledged kids frolicking on an island, for 200 pages.
