I could not put this down, it was entrancing to read. 

The author flawlessly switched between POVs and timelines, I was never confused. All the puzzle pieces fit perfectly by the end. 

The characters were written with such nuance and depth, so when you finish you don’t even know who you’re rooting for.

Loved the ending! The plot was quick, never going exactly where you thought it would.

I think this book will deserve a reread from me in the future. I picked up this book right at the beginning of a reading slump, meaning I read it very slowly over about 2 months… Which made it a little hard to follow when I finally picked it back up to finish the last 100 page after not reading for a few weeks, to follow two different POVs of two women both out for revenge. 
I did enjoy it though, and I want to give it a reread because I think my circumstances didn’t give it the best shot.
