"A brilliant, twisty thriller--I loved it!" —KAREN M. MCMANUS, bestselling author of One of Us is Lying
From the author of We Were Liars, which John Green called "utterly unforgettable," comes a mind-bending, New York Times bestselling thriller told in reverse.
"Compulsively readable." —Entertainment Weekly
"An addictive and shocking feminist thriller." —Lena Dunham
Imogen lives at the Playa Grande Resort in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. She spends her days working out in the hotel gym and telling other guests how she was forced out of Stanford.
But Imogen isn't really Imogen. She's Jule. And she's on the run from something. Or someone. Which means . . . where is the real Imogen?
Rewind: Jule and Imogen are the closest of friends. Obsessed with each other, even. Imogen is an orphan, an heiress; she and Jule spend a summer together in a house on Martha's Vineyard, sharing secrets they'd never reveal to another soul.
But that was months ago. Where is Immie now? And why is Jule using her name?

After loving both her other books - we were liars and family of liars, I had high hopes for this book, but I was met with disappointment. Maybe it's just because I finished a 5 star book or maybe because I had high expectations, but I didn't find myself really enjoying this book.
The book was mainly led by feminism and that's just something I don't like reading much about. I read books to escape reality, not to be reminded about race and sex injustices every couple of chapters.
On top of that, I didn't really like any of the characters either, and Jule (the main character) just had to learn to deal with her life instead of killing every person that doesn't agree with her.
I overall didn't see the point of this book and the connections of Jule to superheroes was just weird.
