I wil lsay I'm not much of a crime thriller reader. It's not really my thing.
However the first 3/4 of the book were great. I enjoyed the switching between now and then. I thought the three narrators had all distinct voices. Ben was so beautifully stupid and teenagery. I occasionally found it funny even.
But I gotta be honest the ending really disappointed me. After all this build up I expected a bit more. It felt like the resolution/reveal came out of nowhere and it was all tied up with a bow all too neatly in my honest opinion. Like it was such a let down after such a build up.

I am SO upset that this didn’t end up as much of a thrill as I expected 🥺 The beginning was gripping and I thoroughly enjoyed the differing perspectives (flicking between current Libby’s and past Ben/Patty’s perspectives).
But I’m so cross with the ending 😂 I think there was such a big build up for it to fall short.
This one definitely requires many content warnings, which I’ll include below!
3.5 out of 5 stars for me ✨ Thank you!
