OKAY THIS WAS SO MESSED UP BUT SO GOOD WOW

probably a review to come?????? but I just.....WOW.

-----------------

FULL REVIEW:

Okay wow I am obsessed with this book. Thank you to Justina at work for recommending this! I did not want to stop listening (I feel like I say that a lot about audiobooks lately).

It had me HOOKED. I honestly had no idea what the twist would be because it was just that crazy of a book. At the end, when the truth came out, I started to catch on, but then it went in another direction and it had my jaw DROPPING. Just when you think it's done, it throws you a curve ball!

I liked the main character, Louise, but I also kept getting so frustrated with her because she knew she was making bad decisions but she continued to make them regardless!! I just wanted to slap some sense into her! I can't say too much about the other characters because of spoilers, but man, it's just a ride all around.

I get why some people aren't fans of the ending but like.......I read this because I wanted a book that would leave me wanting more and leave me in shock, not something super realistic. My jaw was on the ground when I finished and it's been weeks later and I am STILL thinking about that twist of an ending. THAT'S why I wanted to read this book. Seriously, seeing all of the reviews about "that ending" did it for me. And I convinced my best friend Brittany to read it and the twist flipped her on her head, too.

Overall, really great thriller with a twist that you'll be thinking about long after finishing the book. Amazed I haven't heard of this before recently because I really think it deserves more acclaim.

What did I just read!?

The book in the beginning and middle was a bit boring and it dragged and it made me not wont to pick it up at all.

The ending was very fast paced and crazy and I loved it.

This was very difficult to rate. I'm just going to give it a 3.5 stars

C’mon....really???? What the hell did I just read? I think I have a hard time with books that mix real life relationship with unbelievable supernatural stuff...just not my deal.

Brilliant. This book has my heart racing long after I closed the cover. Not only one twist, but two. I’m terrified to go to sleep - lucid dreams were always a scary concept, but this takes it over the edge.
