This book was an incredibly journey that felt like a true crime documentary! It’s not scary or creepy horror but more of a mystery/ thriller! Thank you NetGalley and publisher for ARC of this book and opportunity to read it early! I really enjoyed it!

Following the death of a teen with a decent social media following and the subsequent videos that were posted after his death and the attention it brings. His family and their lives are turned upside down.
I'm kind of speechless. This was a wild ride.
Multi first person POV and use of social media formatting made it interesting.
I don't even know what to say that won't deliver a spoiler. I normally take notes while I read to help write a review, but I was so invested I forgot. The emotions ran the gamut. I would definitely say there should be a Trigger Warning, while it's obviously about the loss of a child/close loved one I was not expecting the raw emotion, especially when Caleb viewed his brother's body.
As a mother, but not one that has lost a child, a good part of the first bit of the book was pretty heart wrenching. Which speaks to the authors ability to convey emotion in writing.
I'm impressed and will be keeping an eye on this author.

I want to start by saying this is not really a horror novel, although horrific things happen. It's a mystery/thriller with multiple points of view, several red herrings, and an engaging and twisty narrative. Even though it's not horror per se, I still loved this story and found myself reading well into the night to find out all the secrets.
A boy named Jake dies in his garage and, at first, it appears that a stunt he performed had gone wrong. That same day, a very troubled and bullied girl goes missing.
What follows is a story which entwines these two events through several viewpoints. We follow the perspective of Jake's brother, the missing girls father, a website of amateur sleuths who become obsessed with this case, and others. There's one point of view which serves as a huge curve ball once the identity is revealed and that reveal changes the narrative!
We'll discover how those two tragic events are related as information and secrets start to be discovered. And it's not going to end the way you might think.
The pacing of this novel is excellent as we switch viewpoints in every chapter, leaving these sometimes mini cliffhangers until we cycle back to that character. This makes for a tense and unpredictable read which I'm a huge fan of.
Your feelings towards certain characters will change over the course of the book as hidden things are ultimately uncovered. You're never really sure who you can rely on.
I loved this book and I highly recommend it.

I absolutely loved this book! I grabbed it for the Pantera references (obviously, I had to), but it completely blew me away. It hooked me right from the start, diving deep into Caleb’s chaotic headspace, and the story just kept pulling me in. I couldn’t put it down and finished it in three days. What really stuck with me was how real it felt, especially with the modern touches that show just how connected and reliant we are on tech such as social media and online forums. My favourite part? By far the last few chapters! Absolutely wild. Just when you think you’ve got it figured out, it hits you out of nowhere. No spoilers, but trust me, it’s worth the read.
