This book kept me hooked and coming back from the very beginning. There are some heavy scenes and I would advise reading any trigger warnings before reading this book, but I would definitely recommend it! It was a great thriller and the twist was a good one!! If you like psychological thrillers, this book is for you!

This would have been a 5 star read if the epilogue would have been -slightly- more flushed out. So SO good. A heart pounding, gut wrenching look into the wrong side of "coming of age" and how our past will always come back to haunt us.
