i really wish this was a whole book, interesting story and wasn’t really expecting the end bit

Gillian Flynn does it again! The ending wasn’t exactly what I expected and left me with some questions, but definitely worth the read.

It was alright. I expected more from Flynn given her past masterpieces but this was just ... alright. Nice story, nice double twist, but the writing was not that fantastic. Example: We went down the first escape. It was quite dramatic.

What? How do you put something like that in your story? This felt rushed. You can do better Flynn.

Flynn is evil in the best possible way.
slow-paced

Good short read

I was hoping for more but I thought it was a fun short little story to read and take my mind off life for a minute.
