Lastly, I wanted to talk about how this book has lots of hard truths. It felt nice to get the small things and then be shocked by the “big reveal.” Most of the other mysteries or plot twists of the book I figured out pretty easy (mostly because I think Donne wasn’t trying to hide them very hard). It made for an intriguing and well-paced plot.Īs per usual, I thought I had the murderer pegged nearly from the beginning and was wrong. Even our lovely and innocent main character is not so innocent. Any of them could have been murders because they were all up to shady things. But something that I especially loved about this book was the lack of likable characters. Like any good murder mystery, suspicion was thrown on every single character. Of course, I welcomed the intrigue the murder brought and was so excited that things were immediately obvious to me. I was so interested and invested in the lives of these ferocious girls, that I wasn’t even thinking about one of them getting murdered. Despite the fact that the murder didn’t happen until like 20-30% into the book, I wasn’t mad about it. This is the story of what happens when someone doesn’t make it into the Ivy school of their dreams.ĭonne sets up this book in such a way that she lets us get to know the group of friends that our main character is in, The Ivies, and then she lets the shenanigans begin. If you are a fan of THESE VENGEFUL HEARTS or THEY WISH THEY WERE US, then this is the book for me.
