|| 4.5 stars ||

Oh my god, this was so good! I liked the first two books a lot, but this was truly a million times better!

We’ve left the silly romance plot behind entirely, and instead, this book only focused on giving us an intricate, well thought-out, and intriguing murder mystery that gets solved in the most tension-filled way!
I love that each little piece gets revealed slowly and surprisingly, but that every single reveal still made so much sense afterwards. I was shocked by a lot of them, but nothing felt random or forced; there were always clues that could be pointed at, even if you didn’t see them at first!

P.S. When it comes to Sloane, I feel like a mother hen protecting her chick. I want to wrap her up in a warm blanket, tell her everything will be okay, and snarl at anyone who dares to come too close.


'The Naturals' series:
1. The Naturals - 3.0 stars
2. Killer Instinct - 3.5 stars
3. All In - 4.5 stars

Imme van Gorp @Heather — You definitely should! The first two books are really fun too, even though they do have a ridiculous love triangle, but this book was the best😄

message 17: by Imme (new) - rated it 5 stars

Imme van Gorp @Krystal — Yea, I agree! There’s nothing worse than a series that goes downhill, and my favourite thing is when it gets better with each book, like what happened here😉🫶🏻

message 21: by Imme (new) - rated it 5 stars

Imme van Gorp @SK — I haven’t read any of her other books so unfortunately I can’t tell you whether they’re similar at all…🥲 All I can say is that the first two books do have a really dumb love triangle, so you do have to push through that, but the murder mystery is always really good!!🩷

Imme van Gorp @Sabrina — right!!? all the twists and turns were genuinely SO GOOD! I did not expect this series to give me such an amazing murder mystery plot, but here we are anyway!😌 I’m really looking forward to seeing how it all ends im the final book! I hope Sloane gets a good ending🥹 And I’m so curious to see what happens with the mystery plot… I still have so many questions!!!
