really liked it
bookshelves: mystery-thrillers

So much more thrilling than the last book. You can expect more twists, more fast in pacing yet it wasn’t, and some character development especially in the relationships between them all, and a little more background on the naturals which I enjoyed and I cannot wait for more.

3.5 stars

I can’t say anything without spoiling so when I say my theories for the twists/unsub here were mostly right (equally going insane because of the back and forth) but Jennifer had to go and add another twist—like what was that?? I don’t even remember how I felt but my jaw didn’t drop lol so I’m hoping this next one leaves it absolutely on the floor

Not sure what to say about lia. Her strong usually hostile personality is what makes it so difficult to like her as I’m constantly going back and forth. But I can see myself growing to like her more eventually.

honorable mention of Sloane. I adore her and that beautiful brain of hers. As most have mentioned, she truly gives off Spencer Reid vibes, but also in someway felicity smoak from Arrow for those familiar with the show. I can’t wait to learn more about her background

Here’s to hoping I don’t have to wait long for answers to the lingering questions I have when it comes to Cassie

And lastly, Dean and Michael. Love those two, loathe this love triangle drama yet also absolutely love what happened towards the end 🥰

Less oversight is given to the naturals and their abilities in working together further and I’m definitely looking forward to ALL IN living up to its name.

**Also, Jess is so right. I refuse to believe Dean is blonde so therefore he is not.
