I mean wow, money, rivalry, stupidity, this isn't something new, but it's the way author present it. So for a mystery lover like me, this wasn't something original at all.

I felt like I have read this type of ending a thousand times before and it was so rushed like people dying, fire, blah blah all accommodated in one chapter. I mean com'on author could have thought of something more intelligent than that. Twists :- I wasn't shocked with any of the twists because they were so random, unimpactful and ludicrous.Įnding :- I would have given it a solid three stars if that ending would have been different. What irritated me the most was that I had to remember the name of there parents and they were so damn confusing like why you have to name them with A. Aubrey ( only okaish and sensible character), Milly ( buy me a drink and please give her some sense), Jonah ( haha, which one?). I just didn't care whether they live or die. The story actually didn't picked pace till 200 pages or so, it was so slow which made it fall nowhere between a cozy laid back mystery or a glued to your seat thriller.Ĭharacters :- None of the characters were appealing at all, I wasn't rooting for anyone. But that too only because I wanted to know the end which I couldn't have guessed anyhow because the amount of out the blue twists the author threw at us, were not imaginable but rather stupid and I am sorry but it didn't made the story intersting at all. This was 'supposed' to be thrilling, like something which will glue you to your seat, and excuse me it was. Plot thing :- The plot was simple, three cousins go to an island and they discover something happened 24 years ago. I am not a big fan of author, I have only read One of us is lying which was pretty decent I think, but due to the hype this book received I decided to read it, but ohhh no, this was such a lackluster, I forced myself to complete it!

wtf storyline, out of the blue twists, cardboard characters and forced romance of the year goes to 'Three cousins ' *cough* 'The cousins'. And the award for the biggest disappointment ft.
