Excellent ending. I love Lo’s tenacity and the feminism. It was clear without feeling too heavy-handed. This is a solid book that makes me want to read more from Ruth Ware.

I would not consider this Ruth Ware’s best work. It was a fine story with a predictable ending. However, it took me forever to get into. I had to keep coming back to it, and I just wasn’t engaged until about 50% of the way through, which I think is too long to finally gain my attention. 

Overall, it was a decently enjoyable read, but not something I’ll come back to or highly recommend.

Exactly what I want in a page-turning thriller, enjoyed the writing style and the first person narrative. I totally bought in and felt the stress of the protagonist as tensions rose. That being said, there are plot points that are unrealistically convenient,  I personally didn’t find them glaring however. Nice and tidy ending too which some people may not love but I was satisfied with.

 I fucking loved this book.

The premise sounds benign and a bit boring but it sucked me in and had me absolutely enthralled. So much guessing, so much wondering, I loved every second of it. Lo is such a fun character to follow, she’s realistically flawed and a bit of a mess because of it but we love her anyway. There’s a decent sized cast of characters that were thankfully not just forgettable blank faces, which I find tends to be an issue with novels such as this. I overall really enjoyed it, the ending was a TOUCH rushed but overall it was fantastic.
