Sixteen-year-old Charlotte is convinced her life would be perfect if she could only get past the one obstacle holding her back: a girl named Bellany Silverfield, who seems to have it all - beauty, popularity, power, and the boy of Charlotte’s dreams. But when Bellany is murdered, Charlotte’s life doesn't get any better. In fact, it gets much worse. Charlotte worries that circumstantial evidence and rumors of motive will make her a prime suspect. She's forced to question the loyalty of her closest friends and to place her trust in a boy she barely knows. But one of these people is definitely lying to her.

Loved the story, variety of characters. Kept me intrigued for the whole story. Can’t wait to see what book 2 entails.

Loved it!

I mostly enjoyed this book. Some things the main character decided to do wasn't realistic (although maybe for a teen it would be ?) and I was screaming in my head "what are you thinking!!?" or "no one would do that!" but overall it was an interesting listen. I assumed what was going on pretty early on but still didn't fully know. I couldn't wait to find out, which I love books like that! The ending was interesting and I'm interested to see what else happens. I'll most likely read more of this author's books. (I think this is a series so I'll probably finish it)

Worth the read

Was intriguing all the way through. Had me guessing until the end. I liked all the characters protags and villans alike, and even the main character, which is rare for me. Narrator was great as well.

I feel like the author might have a problem with people dressing in all black. :D Something that i do every day, which is why I noticed. <3

I can’t wait to read more books from this author. She managed to get the action started from the get go (on Chapter 1!!!) and kept me guessing till the end.

The narrator is really good too and I enjoyed the different voices she made. The tiny issue I had while listening to this narrator is that she reads some commas in a very “narrated” way instead of reading it as if someone was actually saying the characters’ thoughts out loud (I hope this makes sense).

Anyways, I 100% recommend this book and am going to start the second one as soon as I submit this review :)

SO GOOD!

A great murder mystery with just the right touch of teenage romance! This was definitely a page turner, and it was totally unpredictable!

Sooo good!
