Why Y loves this book
Such a fun, engaging read, I was never bored, and especially the first half was so addictive, I just gobbled it up! Set exclusively at an isolated reality TV compound, this is really a story about the characters and their dynamics. The competition element of the show created the high stakes that always kept the tension and kept the story evolving, and changing the interpersonal dynamics as more and more people leave the compound. Characters, writing, and plot were all on point for me 👌.
