Nearly DNF. 

Quite slow paced, not very interesting.  The murder was obvious from the beginning. 

The clues didn’t really unfold throughout the book, they just fell into the detectives lap. 

Also the motive behind the murders is unclear. 

I wouldn’t carry on reading the series.
The Perfect Match by Dandy Smith

3.0

Overall a dark and twisted book. However, the characters were unlikable. The friendship between Ivy and Zara is all over the place. They had a sisterly bond, toxic, obsessive etc. Henry was a complete red flag and Zara was just oblivious to this. Zara doesn't seem to make her own decision and when it comes to point where she needs to the book just ends.

The ending did not provide much closure and was a disappointment. WHAT WAS THE WHOLE POINT!!!

 I really think this could have been expanded upon. I also think that there could have been so much more to this book, so many things could have been explored further. 

Why is it called the perfect match when both Ivy and Henry are just bad people, there is no perfect match? 

Also, I really liked Luke, but was that ending necessary, feel like that just ruined his character
