This was such a fun silly short story thriller. Honestly, this is one of the first short stories I’ve read that actually felt like a full book, I don’t know whether it was just me. I feel like I can’t give it a higher rating because of how short it was but I definitely like Phynleys Greek row related books the most so far.

A Christmas book in June isn’t ideal, but I wanted to read this short story and follow Leighton around a little bit more. It’s silly, it’s not logical, but it’s not bad. I would not have enjoyed this had it been a regular length novel, but 3 stars for what it was.

3⭐️
decent short story but slightly unnecessary and underwhelming

3.5 stars, it was good and a interesting short story to read right after greek row. although i felt like it could’ve touched up on leighton’s relationships with her peers a bit more. the events that happened in greek row were kinda skimmed over and it wasn’t very satisfying transitioning into this particular story, considering it happens a few months later. the plot twist could’ve been stronger if she layed the suspicion on mackenzie for a bit longer. but yet again it is meant to be a short story so. overall i enjoyed it :p

I almost liked the twist of this one better than the first. If this one had been longer and more detailed, I might've preferred this one!

For some reason I was not expecting that twist at all. When I looked back on the details, especially about the whole "moving from Chicago" thing I realized I should've expected it, but I'm glad I didn't see it coming. For a minute, I thought Nathan had done something!

Can't wait for more from this author. 10/10

I wish this was so much longer!!! I loved Greek Row and was so happy to see this one. It was very hooking per usual and I loved every little turn. The ending felt a little rushed but I knew it was a short story and it had to wrap up! I didn’t guess the little clues and the ending so a super fun read and can’t wait for the spring break continuation!!

I’m the type of person to want something short to read then accidentally read the sequel to a book. Overall this book was pretty good, it took me a while to really getting into it but when I did it really started picking up and the plot twist was really good I was almost disappointed but my disappointment quickly vanished.

[Rheagan Moore · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was good!! I definitely was not expecting the ending, I wasn’t even close. Overall this was an easy thriller read and a fun sequel to the first book! I’ve seen so many reviews taking away stars for the book being too short which is crazy because it’s a short story lol. I actually liked this book being short because it was very to the point! If you liked Greek Row definitely pick this up!

3.25⭐️ I enjoyed this short story and it literally took me like an hour to read! I really loved seeing the characters from the first Greek Row and the plot was interesting to follow. I will say I wish it was longer, but I get that it was supposed to be a short read!

[Kylie Kipfer · Rating 3 out of 5]

I thought I figured it out halfway through.. then she found them and I was like oh it was just an accident and was disappointed.. then 10 pages later I realized I had figured it out halfway through, still loved it though

[Landon Holder · Rating 5 out of 5]

The book was short, but good. Liv you’re psycho, and I thought her and Nathan died, bc they were with each other, and something bad happened. But I did not think liv would attempt to kill Nathan bc she didn’t get what she wanted. I love this book. So excited for the next book in this series!!

This book was cute!! I loved seeing more of the characters. I will say, Leighton has a terrible judge of character when it comes to friends...
