I'm giving this book 2 stars because it is well written but unbelievably dull. I could hardly keep my eyes open. It just goes on and on about her stupid fake Instagram life.

I thought this book was creepy. There were a lot of twists that had me saying, “what?” I always thought it was one thing and it turned out to be another. I really enjoyed Dan the most.

Very good. Highly recommend. It was enlightening to get a glimpse behind the curtain of the lives of Instagram influencers. They're worse than I thought. Ugh.

I desperately wanted to love this because of the relevant topic (being social media, obviously). It wasn’t until about the 65% mark that I genuinely became intrigued with the book and where the story was going. It’s definitely a slow-burning thriller, at least in my opinion. I think that the main character, Emmy, was pretty crappy but I think that’s what I was supposed to feel as the reader? She definitely didn’t deserve what happened but overall I just thought she was super artificial and attention-seeking. She saw no problem with any of her wrongdoings. I will say, during the last 35% of the book (approximately) I had a very hard time putting the book down. The drama & suspense was killing me.

There is absolutely nothing redeeming about this book. It's just a terrible book. Most of it was incredibly boring then when you actually got to the "thriller" parts... I would not say thrilling, I would say, extremely disgusting. Nothing about brutal infant death is thrilling to me at all. It's just disturbing. Also, the writing was just absolutely terrible. This book is just terrible people doing terrible things. I wish I could give 0 stars.

I can’t DNF a thriller because like WHAT IF IT GETS THRILLING. This did not get thrilling - I’m entirely un-thrilled. There was also 0 character development.
