Yeah. I used to work in books and our Penguin rep called it a young adult thriller.

I’d call it a twisted family drama.

It is a page turner. Many love it for the surprise twists. I read a lot of similar books so I was not surprised but still enjoyed it.

If you have the physical book, it sometimes lists the book’s genre on the page with the publishing information. Otherwise you could go to the book’s Goodread’s page which will also have that information.

It’s considered Young Adult. It reads like YA and I found it a bit boring.

No. Twists and turns though. It’s a YA but we still did it for book club.

I read a couple of years ago, it wasn’t memorable so that must mean it wasn’t that good

I read the first chapter, and I didn’t like the style. Maybe I’ll try it again sometime. Seems like a lot of people liked it.

Just finished it today. Not a thriller, but some twists. I gave it 3 stars. Started out loving it but about 2/3 in I was ready to be done. Thankful it was a super quick read.

People overrates this book. I was expecting an amazing twist but it wasn’t that spectacular. Definitely my worst read of the year

Not a thriller at all…has a twist at the end but that’s the best part of the book…it was sort of bland for the most part.
