"This was a cute story with a BIG twist (actually was a little shocked lol). But it also felt really cliché…and the whole book felt like a fanfiction. It was mostly dialogue so it’s very very easy to read. Overall it’s a nice LGBTQ story with a cool twist, but I wish it focused more on characters invidually other than their romantic relationship "

"I thought that this books would be more interesting than it was. Yes there were twists and turns and generally an OK plot. Although, I felt that the characters were bland. The main character was practically useless and I felt that the ending was very unsatisfactory. I love reading queer books, but this by far was one of my least favorites. The book has an interesting idea with crime and all, but I think the author didn’t take full advantage of it. "
