After trying to finish this book for so long, I have to say that it was super worth the wait for this INCREDIBLE ending.
I wasn't expecting the twists and turns the story took, it was superbly written, I really felt like I was watching a documentary, only reading it. I was curious to see other works by the author :)

Após estar a tentar acabar este livro durante tanto tempo, tenho a dizer que valeu super a pena espera por este final INCRÍVEL.
Não estava nada à espera das voltas que a história deu, super bem escrito, senti mesmo que estava a ver um documentário só que a ler. Fiquei curiosa para ver outras obras da autora :)

Did I miss something?
The format of the book didn’t bother me as much as others, though I will say it was difficult to keep track of which characters had which background/resume.
But my biggest issues with this were plot lines that got brought up but not finished like Caroline’s C Section? Why even mention she had one when it had no relevance on the story?

Why does the back description of the book call Maura and Amelie his half sisters when the family tree in the book say they all had the same mom & dad?

Why is Rebecca Canning mentioned but we never get to talk to her or hear what happened?

Feel like things were added to make it more “dramatic” but had no bearing on the book at all. Pretty disappointed overall.

Absolutely loved the multimedia/true crime TV concept of this book, and thankfully the execution was well done too. Kept me at the edge of my seat for the entire time.
