My rating for this story is by far 5 stars. Going through the hearings and trails as she tries to prove her innocence until the end. Anna, the main character who’s point of view the story is from, I thought was loyal, outgoing, and strong throughout the story. Each one has their own unique personality from one another. Maybe Anna really did do it, but she has an alter ego? Maybe Tate was jealous of Elise? Could the most inoccent of the group have killed Elise? Or a complete stranger? Not to mention all the questions swirling in my mind about everyone’s relationship to each other. I had so many theory’s I could barely keep track. How much motive each person had, and who couldn’t possibly have done it. I went back and forth thinking about who could have done it. The ending was as it was said in the summary at the back of the book “… more shocking than anyone could have ever imagined.” Without giving too much away, I will say that who killed Elise Warren surprised me more than maybe it should have.
It gives you a look into the past and the most crucial events. It shouldn’t have been written any other way. It took me a few chapters to get used to it, but otherwise I enjoyed how Abigail Haas wrote this story, and believe it suits it. But, to make this not so confusing, the author tells the reader what the chapter is about/when it takes place (The hearing, the first night, Halloween, ex.). From there it goes to before it all happened. The book starts off with the phone call to the police as the dead girl’s friends–Tate, AK, Anna, Mel, Max, and Chelsea–find her. As I read the back summary, I pictured the book to be about a girl who went looking for her best friends killer as she awaited her trail on bail. Or death.” It instantly caught my attention. Not to mention the little blurb on the front, “Friends for life. When I picked up this book it was because of the title and the appealing front cover.
