5 Words: Witness, family, murder, lies, secrets. 
 In my head, I bigged this up so, so much. This is one of my favourite authors and she was stepping away from her Prep School Confidential roots and going darker, more serious, more twisty and creepy... And it worked so well and I loved it. I was absolutely not disappointed. 
 The story was quite slow to start, it felt much more character driven than her previous books, and everything built up gradually until all of a sudden it was at break neck speed and I couldn't put it down. Add to that the twists and turns and by the end I was more than a little bit dumbstruck. 
 I didn't expect what was coming and that was insanely refreshing. This is unpredictable to the max. Everything I had guessed at, all of the theories I had, they were blown apart by the ending. 
 Everything you read in this book is for a reason. Nothing is superfluous to the plot. But you won't realise that this is the case until the end. 
 If you're a plot-reader, just stick with it. Because it does pick up and the pace is insane when it does. If you're a character-reader you're in for a real treat because this is all about the characters and the pace is just a bonus.
