I was excited to read this book due to the good reviews. I did not have any prior knowledge of the case. The only information I had was the book description. I typically enjoy true crime as long as it is well written.

I was disappointed in this book. I had a strong dislike for the main character Dave and was unable to sympathize with him. He was extremely self-centered and immature. Dave continued to make poor decisions throughout the book.

I didn’t find the writing style appealing. It seemed to include too much ridiculous texting. The dialog was immature. I had to force myself to finish the book to write the review. I gave it three stars because it did improve at the very end of the book when they were solving the crime.

Even though I didn't enjoy this book, I appreciated the opportunity to read it through BookishFirst.
