This book was actually really good. There were a couple of twists, I saw a few of them coming, but the end one got me good. I did not expect that ending at all. It was a wild ride and I loved having it come from the perspective of Anna, she seemed a tad unreliable because of the pills and the alcohol but it made it super interesting.

Love a slow-burn thriller and it kept me guessing up until the end! I also empathised with Anna too, her story making sense later in a sad way. It's the type of book you'd want to reread right after you finished to see what you missed! Should check content warnings first tho
