 really good mystery, thriller. Thought I actually had it figured out, but towards the end, I realized I didn’t!!

I went in blind, and I highly recommend you do too! I don’t normally love thrillers or books that jump around in the timeline a lot. So for me to love this book, it must’ve done something right. I can totally see how someone would find this hard to follow with the way it jumps around and has so many names to keep track of. But I had so much fun with this. There’s a lot of stuff that you think might not be important as you’re reading it, but all ties together in the end.

Those last 100 pages were so fun, I was racing to the end. Was sooooo happy with the ending; I love an Oceans-Eleven-style flashback reveal of how everything happened. Closer to 4.5 stars
