Struggled to get into this one…maybe British narrators just aren’t for me? Once I was finally hooked, it was good though! Not my favorite, but it was okay.

dark emotional mysterious tense

5.0

Oh my what a book! This did not turn out the way I imagined but in the most positive way ever. I stayed up late to finish this book and that is something I never do, because good sleep is very important to me. I felt super tense and anxious the whole time reading because I did not know how the story was going and some events were very unsettling. I loved the different POV's and timelines and they just entangled the story perfectly. The characters were absolutely brilliant and raw. I felt hate, empathy, hope, sadness, every emotion possible. This book was amazing and I can't recommend it enough! It's not a super fast paced thriller with lot of action, it is more a the unraveling of events that refer to the story of the male and female MC. If that sounds like something you would enjoy go for it! That was an great start to my 2023 reading year!
