The beginning of this novel was slower than I expected for a thriller (not my usual genre, neither is YA). I was frustrated when the two main characters hadn’t met a third of the way through the book. The story picked up toward the end. 

This story is very Pretty Little Liars meets Get Out and I fear that if you aren’t a fan of both of those, you might not get through the book. 

While the overall twist was quite predictable, the smaller twists and endings weren’t so it didn’t completely set me off. What did put me off a bit was the absolutely ridiculous choices the characters make…
YOU KNOW YOURE BEING WATCHED STOP DOING THINGS YOU DONT WANT SHARED!
Teenagers, am I right? 

Also, gay! 😍

I really enjoyed the book once I got through the building of the storyline. The hierarchical encounters of an elite school didn’t catch me at first but when things started to get f’d up I got invested. Read the second half of the book in one sitting.
