• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No

Wow - as far as psychological suspense goes, this was one for the books! I found it a little repetitious at times, but it's a fast read.

I trudged through the whole book. It wasn’t until the last 20% that I was actually intrigued.

1.5

As a disclaimer, I probably would’ve DNFed this book if I hadn’t been reading it for a book club. It really wasn’t for me. 
The characters were insufferable, and every move being made by the author was very transparent.
