I really enjoyed reading this book A LOT! I loved the dual POV and the time stamps for each chapter. I also really liked how there were chapters sprinkled in where we didn’t know who’s POV it was, we could only speculate. 

While I liked reading the book, I wasn’t obsessed with the ending. When I was reading I was trying to figure out the big twist, and I feel like my prediction would’ve been a better story line. But I really didn’t see all the smaller tiny twists that seemed to happen each chapter and that’s why I loved reading it! 

This was a really good one by Alice Feeney and she has slayed me once again!

More graphic than expected, and too much focus on some of things mentioned in the content warnings. This book is trigger warning central, it's a lot. Surprised me here and there, but not her best.

for the most part, i really enjoyed this book. it wasn’t one that i was constantly thinking about, but i was excited to open it up again and again. the ending completely  came out of left field, and i applaud alice for that. not what i had expected, but i very much enjoyed. the ending truly gets you to the very last second.
