A twisted psychological thriller with an unexpected ending

Boring. Don't like the main character. Not interested.

Loved this book! Full of suspense and twists. Way better than "The Girl on the Train" in my opinion. Fast read too.

As a fan of psychological thrillers, this book was a good book to read in between other readings however I must say it was tough to start. The beginning has a slow start and the story line can be a bit confusing however once you become invested in the characters you will be left wondering what else is ahead. Although the ending seemed a bit rushed it was a good overall read.

I picked up this book because I heard Amy Adams is starring in a movie adaptation of this book (and it's coming to Netflix this fall) and I heard that Jake Gyllenhaal is starring in a show that is based on the author's (real name: Dan Mallory) life story.
This book was a quick read and once I made it about 60% through, I literally could not put it down. I can definitely see parallels to Girl on the Train, not so much Gone Girl (and I'm so tired of books being called the next "Gone Girl.")

Thrilling and suspenseful. Page-turner until the end. The author’s use of imagery is powerful and poetic, and really appeals to the senses.

Ugh, this dragged on and on and on with nothing happening. I finally read the recap on Wikipedia and I'm glad I stopped when I did.
