ೃ⁀� 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒐𝒓 𝒔𝒑𝒐𝒊𝒍𝒆𝒓𝒔! *ೃ༄


*edit: lowering this bc everyday i think about how much i hate it. and i added more thoughts to my review 😋


~🚐 personally emailing Holly Jackson to get the answers i deserve 🧍‍♀�



~the writing~ 🚐

╰┈� while this was entertaining at times, it also dragged at certain points. i feel like they weren’t as scared out of their minds as someone should be 😭 they would be so chill sometimes and then get scared but it never lasted long. it didn’t make me have goosebumps or anything like that. the setting was in the RV the whole time. this is probably another reason why I found this somewhat boring. i wanted to binge this in at least 24 hours but that unfortunately didn’t happen 😭 i think i had such high hopes for this bc I was comparing it to AGGGTM and it just didn’t live up ☹️ also the pov was kinda confusing 😭 will be reading more Holly Jackson tho! (TRORP is not much better 🤡)


~Red~ 🚐

╰┈� not my favorite character ever! i hated to be in her mind. her mind is like a cat on catnip. i lowkey thought she was an unreliable narrator at first bc what she was saying made zero sense 😭 RED TELL US ABOUT THE CURTAINS 🧍‍♀� HMM GIRLIE 🤨 TELL. ME. ‼️‼️Holly, if ur gonna put these unnecessary details in here and not even tell us what it’s for then why bring it up?? annoys the crap out of me and pissed me off. if you were looking to confuse the reader then you got me 😍 “it looked like Homer Simpson� or some crap like that. yeah officially confused bc how tf do curtains look like Homer Simpson 🤡 I’d love to see it.


~Maddy & Reyna~ 🚐

╰┈� i liked them but they really weren’t that significant to the plot. Reyna definitely deserves better than Oliver. poor girl 😔 Maddy deserves a better brother than Oliver. you see the pattern here 🤸‍♀� ‼️‼️(POTENTIAL SPOILER: I think reds best friend wrote her name on the paper. something about her didn’t sit right with me.) ‼️‼️


~Simon~ 🚐

╰┈� he was drunk for the most part 😭 but somehow was the most level headed?? that’s not saying much though 🧍‍♀� i think i liked Simon the most!!! (he wasn’t even that funny)


~Oliver~ 🚐

╰┈� when i say i despise men i mean this man. literally scum of the earth. hatred is not even a strong enough word to describe how i feel about him.


~Arthur~ 🚐

╰┈� hmm, i have mixed feelings about him. i could care less about what happens to him and red. but that leads us to another thing that didn’t get resolved 😭


~quotes~ 🚐 ⚠️ (some of these quotes might spoil something! read at your own risk if u haven’t read this book yet!!) ⚠️

� “you know, early on, Maddy pulled me aside and told me to never ask you about your mom,� he said. “Or to even mention moms in general in front of you. And if that’s what you want, then that’s fine, but if you can’t talk to your best friend about her, I was wondering, maybe, whether you wanted someone else to talk to about her. And I could do that sometime. If you want.�
-tbh he was sweet for saying that

� “what if I said you were the right people, in the right place at exactly the right time.�
-this is the only thing that made me feel concerned 🧍‍♀�




~ 🚐 so to wrap it all up i did not get my answer to the curtains. or the letter. the curtains are going to haunt me at 2:00am 🤸‍♀� I still love Holly Jackson and will be running to the store when “the reappearance of Rachel Price� comes out! (that was a waste of money 🤡) sorry there weren’t more quotes 😭




� 𝐫𝐭𝐜! �.* 3 very conflicted stars 🤸‍♀�


ೃ⁀� 𝓹𝓻𝓮-𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓭: well i definitely took a dark turn from my last book 🤸‍♀� day in the life as a mood reader 😭 this has to be good bc it’s by Holly Jackson 😌
