   Cap No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra.  Mrs_Tapsell_Bookzone | Feb 14, 2023 |   ~MY THOUGHTS~ I recently read an arc with a similar story to this…Pretty Dead Girls…I didn't really like that one, and this had a similar feel to it in the beginning, minus the mean girls. I was worried but it wasn't long before I realized this was different in a lot of ways. This only had me eye-rolling a couple moments and the other had me constantly eye-rolling. In this, the mystery surprised me, actually. The characters were likable…and the best part…when the MC is being chased down by the bad guy, she actually does the smart thing, at least 80% of the time. My issue and this could be a tad spoiler-ish, is with the promiscuity of 17-year-olds. I can't read explicit sex scenes when the MC's are under 18. It's just weird. If she had just left that out of the book, it would have been a 5-star all the way. ~BREAKDOWN OF RATINGS~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Plot~ 4.5/5 Main Characters~ 4.5/5 Secondary Characters~ 4/5 The Feels~ 5/5 Pacing~ 5/5 Addictiveness~ 4.5/5 Theme or Tone~ 3.5/5 Flow (Writing Style)~ 4/5 could have used a proofreader… Backdrop (World Building)~ 4.5/5 Ending~ 5/5 Cliffhanger~ Nope. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Book Cover~ Compelling, and it kept me guessing as to how it fits with the story Setting~ Martinsburg, West Virginia Source~ Kobo eBook ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~∞~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (  ) Leah422 | Mar 23, 2018 | Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
When Ella is mysteriously attacked on her way home from a party, her entire life changes as she finds herself at the center of an attempted murder investigation. Ella tries to move on, but her attacker isn't done yet. He shows himself in the form of horrifying signs and symbols: a clown mask strewn on her bed, a dead bird in her backpack, a shadow moving past her window in the night. And as the weeks pass, it turns out that Ella isn't the only one being tormented. With the help of an old flame, Jensen Carver, and her friends and family, Ella tries to attain some sense of normalcy, but she can't seem to shake the feeling that there's a dark pattern hidden in the killer's every move. Suddenly, even those in her innermost circle seem suspicious. In her seemingly safe West Virginia town, Ella starts to wonder who she can trust No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

This was a pretty entertaining YA mystery with good twists and some character development not often seen in this genre. Seasoned mystery readers will probably pick the ending as there were some subtle references throughout that gave me the 'heads up' on how the story would play out. However, I still got a few surprises with some cleverly done bombshells. There was just enough romance to be engaging but not so much as to detract from the main genre of murder mystery.
