 The Plot 
 First of all this is supposed to be a mystery/thriller where you were suspicious of every character, I mean they're potential murder suspects! However, I didn't feel really at all throughout my reading that these characters were murderers, nobody seemed sneaky enough or vengeful enough to have actually done it. In a murder mystery/whodunnit you need to sell me on all of these suspects and I just wasn't sold. I wasn't second-guessing anyone, I wasn't thrilled, and I wasn't stumped about the mystery. 
 This was pretty fast-paced and did keep me interested enough in the story as it was told in four different POVs, however, I felt that the POVs really blended together. I would be deep into a chapter told from Cooper's perspective and still think I was reading Bronwyn's. That shouldn't be happening, kind of hard to get into everyone's inner monologues when I forget whose I'm reading. 
 I thought many of the twists were predictable or when they weren't they didn't pack much of a punch. Which is probably why this book was so disappointing for me, because mystery/thriller's should be a lot more.....thrilling. 
 I really liked that this set up was a nod to The Breakfast Club but really the only similarity was that there was detention for a few pages and each character fits into a stereotype. That's as far as the similarities go though which was a little disappointing. But I still really enjoyed the reference overall. 
 Also that ending and the reveal at the end was a little ridiculous and actually made the entire book sort of pointless. I was just...."Really? That was it? Why?" It did make sense but it was all really odd and not at all what I thought I was signing up for when I started the book. 
 Overall, it was a great and very interesting IDEA but just really failed on execution. 
 The Characters 
 The characters were the only point in the story that kept me reading. They each developed a lot throughout the story and had a decent amount of complexity. However, as I already mentioned it was a little hard to tell at times whose POV I was reading. Yes, it does start each POV switch with the name and date but I STILL got lost and had a hard time trying to remember whose POV I was reading. The characters were all a little too similar at times. 
 Each character fits directly into a stereotype or cliche which in any other case would have been annoying but with this book it worked. This is supposed to be a nod towards The Breakfast Club since each character is a Brain, Beauty, Criminal, Athlete, and an Outcast. I loved how each character owned up to their labels and "rebelled" against them in their own ways by the end of the story. 
 There is a tiny bit of diversity with a Latino character and a LGBT character, although it is kind of skated over which was disappointing. 
 However, I didn't really click with any of the characters and none of them were all that memorable for me. 
 The Romance 
 There's a couple of different romances scattered throughout the book but the main romance is between Bronwyn and Nate. It was just sort of okay and I was kind of bored with it. The only nice thing about their romance is that it was slow-burn, no insta-love or other YA romance tropes here! 
 In Conclusion 
 Overall this was an okay read and it seems to be a case of "It's not you, it's me" for me with this book. It could definitely be a good read for others especially for those of you who may not necessarily read a ton of YA mystery/thrillers, it will make this one less predictable for you! 
 What I Loved: 
 -It was pretty fast-paced 
 -The characters were alright 
 -The romance wasn't filled with tropes 
 -A bit of diversity 
 -The Breakfast Club reference (because it's awesome) 
 What I Didn't Love: 
 -Fairly predictable 
 -The ending/reveal was a bit ridiculous 
 -I didn't FEEL anything during the story or for the characters 
 -POVs blended together 
 Recommend? 
 Meh. I can't say I personally would go around recommending this to anyone because I found it to be really boring and predictable for the most part, However, like I said this could still be enjoyable for you if you haven't read a ton of other YA mystery/thrillers.
