Not the best mystery I’ve ever read but pretty good and the ending was satisfying. Mainly, the plow was really slow to develop and I thought the main character was frustrating to listen to.

Okay so was I supposed to like Millie? Honestly by the end she was pretty irritating and gave pick me, love me, choose me. I realize that she's emotionally stunted and all from her past, but the constant comparing herself to Nina got old. Nina grew on me as she told her story too. Kind of obsessed with her character "development" or just the slow revealing of who she is truly and how she chose to handle the situation she was in. Obviously Andy is the true terror of the story. He was sus from the very beginning. I could tell there was something not quite right with him. 

Overall I enjoyed it as I do any good fast-paced thriller.
