panInteresting idea (Tess plans to take her own life and Leila‘s task is to impersonate Tess online life), but weak/uninteresting execution. The major problem is the pacing. The very slow tempo doesn‘t adds anything to build the tension and unfortunately the story quickly becomes boring, and with the stereotypical characters also - predictable.
so-soI felt like this book was a bit slow once it got started. I really expected it to be more exciting and for there to be more twists, but the writing style didn‘t really captivate me. This centers around a site that people communicate on that turns into a dark proposition for the main character. I just wanted it to hold my interest more than it did. #booked2019 #socialmediafocus
pickMy grand finale for the spring prompts of #booked2019 for the #socialmediafocus
I really really enjoyed this... It was creepy and interesting and odd and the narrator was great!
Finished up my #weekendread, came across this one while searching for the #Booked2019 #SocialMediaFocus prompt.
Somewhere between a so-so and a pick.

pickDidn't want to stop reading this one! 😁
I really liked the dark and dangerous atmosphere this has.
The characters were good, although the plot was not always all that believable.
I'm planning to watch the Netflix series based on it

Finished this today. Imogen Church is the absolute best narrator. I love her. This story though. It was soooo good but the ending was left open or rather just very vague. I'm not big on having to decide what happened, I want to be told . I like that shocking ending that lets you know exactly what just happened and why. This didn't. I'll have to see if there is a sequel
Could pick lots under-hyped books for Day26 of #augustofpages (incl Things They Didn't See Coming, The First Book of Calamity Leek), but I'm going for Kiss Me First! It's one of a million books written in the style of Gone Girl, but this one stood out for me. A shy girl offers to assume the online identity of a girl who wishes to die without upsetting her family too much. The idea is to lose contact gradually but a bunch of twists & turns ensue!!
