DID NOT FINISH: 18%

Characters were mostly unlikeable. Just couldn’t get into the story. Premise too unbelievable. 

The plot twists were predictable, and there were a fair amount of spelling and grammatical errors.

This was just a unique read for a thriller!

The characters were a lot of fun to follow along with. Cut differently, this could have been a fun rom-com read. A reclusive character falls into her dream job as an advise writer. She slowly comes out of her shell with the help of her found family at her neighborhood diner, a cute man she meets at a local coffee shop, and her new coworkers.

But clearly, it's not a rom-com. Alex is reclusive because she's trying to leave her dangerous past life behind. The public announcement of her new job may bring back these demons from her past. She only landed this job because the previous columnist died under mysterious circumstances, and her new boss may be dangerous. While trying to piece together what happened, Alex finds herself in dire straits.

This was a quick read for me- I finished it in one sitting! There was no jaw-dropping twist (at least from my perspective), but it kept me on the edge of my seat.

This was such a great read! I was invested in the main character, and I did not see the plots twists coming at all! There were several characters I was suspicious of the whole time but I also several reveals that I couldn’t have guessed! The letters being throughout the book was a neat added aspect and when it was revealed who they were written by, I was shocked in the best way! I really enjoyed this book!
