Well. That was a ride. 
 "The girl with the camera is going to be a problem." 
 I really enjoyed this book. The only thing that took a star off was that the characters didn't 
 really 
 have any depth to them. I appreciated the side characters and how they had actual personalities, but you got so little of anyone besides Kate and the four boys that it didn't really matter that much. My four stars are for the plot, the format, and the atmosphere. 
 The plot was really interesting, because I liked the struggle of trying to figure out whether it was an accident or not. I also really liked that Kate had an actual reason to be investigating the boys, instead of just being a teenager who feels that they can do police work better than the actual police. Kate works for one of the assistance DAs, and Kate knows the DA gave them the case so it won't be solved, and her boss knows it too, so he gets Kate to help prove the DA wrong. I liked that the boys didn't know what really happened, and the struggle of the one boy we get to talk to the most, Shepherd, has to deal with the fact that one of his best friends shot the other, and they don't know which one. I do wish we got a little more face time with the other three boys, especially Henry who we see for like, 3 scenes, but I was so engaged with the murder mystery that it didn't particularly bother me. 
 The format of this book was cool because it included texts, killer's POV pages, and interview transcripts, in addition to the traditional story format. It added an interesting element to the story, and pulled me into Kate's investigation even more. 
 The atmosphere of this book, holy crap. This book was just about a teenage boy who made a mistake he really shouldn't have, but it was SO CREEPY. ((view spoiler)[The killer POVs made it so much worse because you could see that while everyone thinks this was a stupid accident, it really wasn't. Someone shot him on purpose. (hide spoiler)]). It was also super suspenseful, and that added to the creepy factor and the small town murder factor and just made the atmosphere that much better. 
 I liked Kate enough. Her narrative was interesting because I thought the murder mystery was interesting, but she didn't really do anything for me as a character. She was alright, and not annoying or whiney or terrible, but she was just meh. I liked her best friend, Reagan, because she had a personality and wasn't just a cardboard supporting character. I also liked Shep, because his struggle with being a part of "The River Point Boys" and not being his own person was interesting, as well as his struggle with trying to fight the fact that one of his best friends might have purposefully shot the other. 
 A lot of people have said that the ending of this book makes sense and is logical, and it is. It makes perfect sense, and that was much appreciated. It was still well-hidden enough throughout the book that you didn't automatically guess it, but you could go back and see the little hints. I also appreciated that it wasn't some ridiculous ending, because the logical ending fit with the "real-world" feeling the story had. That feeling is also what made the atmosphere of this book so creepy. 
 Overall, I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend it to people looking for a good YA mystery.
