This is such a good thriller/mystery book this was my first greer hendricks book and I absolutely loved it, the story was really well written and I felt like I was along on this journey. Page 323 please take care of yourself I was hoping trey would get murdered. We got to see that shay wasn't the only one at the station when Amanda killed herself this book definitely will have you on the edge of your seat and I can't recommend it enough.

I would’ve rated this book higher except I could barely finish it because I was too emotionally invested in the feelings of the main character. The ending gave me the closure I needed though.

I enjoyed the book. It's hard not to compare it to The Wife Between Us which was just really really good. So this one didn't live up to that one, but it was still worth reading.

tbh, having the main character be socially awkward was super relatable. The lengths she goes to in order to avoid certain things is incredibly realistic to me. And having all her oddities construed incorrectly was like a nightmare realized. So, great characterization with that bit

This was an alright book. I feel like the characterization of Shay is just kind of "girl who likes data," without a tremendous amount of depth. I was interested in what was going to happen here, but I did wish Shay opened her eyes a little and wasn't quite so gullible in most of the book.

So slow. So boring. The sisters seem
Sketchy AF and Shay has no clue.

After loving An Anonymous Girl, I knew I wanted to read more from this duo! I enjoyed the switching POVs, mainly between Shay and Cassandra/Jane! We also get flashes from other side characters both past and present.

I loved the character developments and complexities, with each POV they have distinctive voices from one another.

Without being too spoiler-y, it was so interesting to see Cassandra and Jane going from these protectors/advocates to becoming exactly the people they fight against. It was truly stunning and compelling to see them do a 180, and showing a sort of exploration of people who go so far to achieve something no matter the cost that they in turn become the very thing they hate.

MY JAW WAS ON THE FLOOR!! The twist after twist after twist was so well executed, I never saw it coming and I will forever bow down to Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen 😱 I will be reading everything they write because they’re one of the few thriller authors that I can never predict what will happen next!

To sum up the novel: I support women’s rights, and more importantly I support women’s wrongs 😅
