Not the best

Lo Denham is a 19-year old girl who has been through a lot. When she was younger, she was in a car crash and she lost both of her parents. After fighting for her life at the hospital, her elder sister Bea leaves her to join a group that calls themselves “the Unity Project”. Lo has never seen her sister again and when she contacts the Project, they tell her Bea doesn't want to talk to her.

When a man shows up at the magazine Lo works for claiming The Unity Project killed his son, Lo sees this as the perfect opportunity to expose the group and reunite with Bea. She decides to investigate the Unity Project.

The story is told by two different narratives. The first storyline is told by Lo in the present day. The second storyline is from Bea's point of view and takes place a few years prior. Bea's narrative tells how she came in contact with and joined the Unity Project.

I think stories about cults are fascinating. This book was one of the most anticipated reads. I loved Sadie by Courtney Summers and I couldn't wait to read her new novel.

The Project starts of strong. I was immediately engrossed in the story and I couldn't put the book down. I had to know what happened to the Bea, what was going on inside of the Unity Project and what Lo was about to uncover. I really wanted to love this book. But, unfortunately, I had some issues with it.. The story feels rushed. I didn't get the choices Lo made and I wish her character development was a bit more put together at some points. I didn't understand her motives and actions. Also, the ending wasn't what I hoped it would be. There are a lot of open questions.
