When reading this book you think you have it all figured out and know what is going on. Then the story takes a twisty turn and has you shocked. I enjoyed every chapter.

Couldn't put it down, kept wanting to figure out what was going to happen!
Sometimes I thought "meh that's a little too much", but it was very entertaining and an enjoyable read. Second book by Freida McFadden and I really enjoy the mystery and surprises she creates.

Super fun thriller! Thé plot twist was fun even if it was predictable. The deux ex machina felt like a bit of a cheat to me, but I guess it makes sense overall.

4.5 ⭐️ (📚)

I love Frieda McFadden books, just when you think you have it figured out you definitely do not 

I was glad to not have a basement, thanks to the locked door, and now I am grateful to lack an attic due to this, but I hope she doesn’t write anything creepy about a kitchen because I’m not sure there’s much I can do on that part
