What a fantastic read. I couldn't put it down. Ghost story but with the tension and development of a true crime novel. It's impossible to stop turning the pages. Very well-written, the author keeps us interested even when she gives us flashbacks cutting to the past or gives interludes, social media comments, etc. Everything referring to the past doesn't feel like an interruption but a way for us to learn more about these two girls.
Also, the paranormal bits are very well done.
There is something in the author's writing that doesn't let us completely trust who is telling the truth because the main character has no problem lying, so we keep thinking about that plot twist at the end that will change all.
Loved it. Will be reading more that this author writes in the future.
