This is the perfect kind of book to listen to! So intense and keeps you guessing right until the end. And performed by the wonderful Bahni Turpin

This book was so good!

the plot twist was insane because I was fully convinced Mary was innocent!

I absolutely love Tiffany D. Jackson’s work!

there’s a scene in which one of the people in the house finds a dead cat. This scene is extremely graphic and very upsetting. The aftermath is also graphic

4.0

If anyone wants to read this book be advised there are disturbing themes in the book.

This book. I honestly don't even know where to begin. Tiffany d. Jackson did a wonderful job of making you feel for Mary and all her struggles. I honestly believed Mary and everything she said. The problems and hardships she faces make you sympathize with her. I never saw the ending coming I had to re-read that part to make sure I had read it right cause I could not believe what I was seeing.

Even though this book can be hard to read I recommend you read it if this is something that interests you. I don't think I'll be forgetting about the book anytime soon.
