I loved this book from the very first page. I think it’s such an important theme tackled in the rawest form and it packed such an emotional punch that I was not at all anticipating. I think it’s a topic that’s very clearly close to the authors’ heart, and she’s done it so much justice. This takes the idea of rich, privileged boys and really goes for the throat in challenging everything that’s wrong with the system of protecting dangerous individuals that upper class society seems to have and it was mind blowing.
From the beginning I knew I was going to enjoy reading this one. It has a more mature and refined writing style than a lot of YA books (which is my personal preference I’m finding as I’m getting older) which really captivated me and help set the scene and atmosphere of the story. Though the characters are still teenagers and have those mannerisms, this book isn’t a light or comedic read. It’s very tense throughout, really emotional, and will have you on the edge of your seat waiting to see how karma delivers its final blow. It was pretty mesmerising, I really enjoyed the writing and found it gripping. It was fast paced, the multiple narrators worked really well to keep me engaged with what was happening, and it had the perfect unravelling of mystery. If you want a book to shock and enrage you, this is how this one made me feel while reading.
