Really good thriller, seen a lot of hate around this one but I was fully on board for the entirety of the story and the twist made me audibly gasp hahahaha genuinely didn’t see it coming one bit

Okay I enjoyed this one! I didn’t predict all the plot twists which was refreshing. I am excited to see where the series goes but I’m worried I will end up really disliking Millie… like I’ll get frustrated with her future decisions. 
I guess we will just have to wait and see.. who knows …

“So”—Lisa slides the knife back into the wooden block and straightens up, her blue eyes wide and anxious—“can you help me, Millie?” “Yes,” I say. “I believe I can.”

Okay wow, what a book, everything is just so perfect and the story went so smoothly and fast enough to not get bored.
I probably will not be reading the rest of series since nothing can top this first books and it’ll probably just be repetitive but no wonder why it got picked up for a movie, can’t wait to see that one
