I think this is the first thriller I have ever read, and might I just say 🤯
I had guessed quite early on part of the twist but there was definitely some of it that really was shocking 😳

I loved this. This is a book-lovers book and just completely satisfying. I was a little concerned this would not be an enjoyable read because there were a few characters that were so awful they didn't feel realistic at first. At the beginning, the bigger mystery to me was how they were getting away with behaving the way that they did and not the subsequent bodies piling up. The twist wasn't done just for the sake of having a twist, it is the soul of the story and when I finished I immediately wanted to go back and re-read the book to find all of the breadcrumbs the author left. Every question I had, from the actions of the characters that turned me off so much to the reveal of the mystery was so rewarding. I am glad I stuck with it. After this and Rock Paper Scissors, I think I have found my new favorite author.

This book took my heart and cut it to many pieces. I really liked the book and although I kind of guessed the plot twist I was still shocked . I also really really loved daisy's character .

<Spoiler>
I cried when we learned that they murdered her . I think a big part of why I loved this book as much as I did was because of daisy like I wanted her to get her happy ending so bad. I do think this book has a lot of useless info tho and although most of the plot threads were cleard up there are still some things I'm iffy Abt . Anyway I loved this book at first I was annoyed at daisy's nativity and that she was so inactive? But now that I know the whole plot twist it makes sense to me .
