Review ebook A Short History of the Girl Next Door
This is one that I have no clue how to rate.
I do have to admit that part of it may be the fact that I was stupid enough to read some reviews before I read this one and I got spoiled. DON’T DO THAT. This one has to be read without knowing anything about the plot twists.

I still read it in one sitting and would recommend it. Call your bestie afterwards and share some Nerds.
