Discussion:
Julie- Felt like I’ve been in a lull. This book brought me back a bit. Enjoyed it. Kept me guessing. Have already recommended. 4/5
Meriah- The book was eh for me. Just didn’t care for it. Couldn’t connect with it. Wanted a better ending. Too much description. Would not recommend. 3/5

Ali- Liked it. Thrilling, on the edge of my seat. Needed to know. Couldn’t guess. Liked that every chapter ended with a spin. Would recommend. 4/5
Jocelyn- Enjoyed the book. Easy read. Loved that the point of view jumped every chapter, driving you crazy with the need to know what was going to happen next. Loved the British lingo. Would recommend. 3.5/5
