⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ this was a pretty standard thriller - and also a cautionary tale about keeping secrets…

A happily married step mom of two sons vanishes one morning ! At the same time the wife of a dutch business also goes missing ! What do these families have in common? Does the missing of one have anything to do with another ? To know these you have to pick up Both of you by Adele Parks

Amazing plot twists that I never saw coming! Nail biting and intriguing page turner! A very interesting thriller for sure .. I read many people say they hated the ending but somehow for me it felt just right . Could be a hit or a miss I guess but my only complaint if I have to make one would be about the pace of the book. It was quiet a slow burn for a thriller nevertheless I thoroughly enjoyed this one and would totally recommend this to mystery lovers out there.

Thanks to @harpercollinsin and @adele_parks for the gifted copy in exchange for a honest review

I loved this book! This was the second I’ve read by Adele Parks. I enjoy the slow build, character development, and ease of visualization in her writing. I was a little confused at the beginning but that’s what the author intended. I guessed early on who did it, but that didn’t ruin the story. In fact, the twists and turns had me second-guessing myself. And that ending?! I certainly didn’t expect that! Kudos the the author for doing the unexpected!!

THS BOOK WAS SO GOOD

The beginning really threw me off but once you hit chapter 4 or 5 it gets SOOO insane. I literally cannot give any summary bc I feel like it would fully give away the book. READ!! It!!!
Especially if you like mysteries

Disappointing end

I felt like this book dragged on for quite a while. I think it could do without 50-60 pages. The twist at the end wasn't as unexpected as it could be. This was just an ok read for me.
slow-paced
Loveable characters: No

talk of c*v!d ruined the book.
