I loved the characters, especially Ravi. I'm usually the type of person to always guess plot-twists, and yet I only guessed one right in the entire book. It was the perfect read for me since I was looking for a book that was suspenseful, and it did exactly that. I read it in 2 days, and when I finished, I had to take a break because of the insane  path the plot took. I loved everything, except for how the writing felt a bit immature, especially at the beginning. For a book where the characters are all either adults or seniors in high-school, the dialogue felt a bit young for me, but that could be because I was reading at writing in very philosophical and reflective styles. Overall, would highly recommend to someone who gets distracted with slow-paced or boring books.
