This book legitimately made me sob. But in the way only Karen’s books can. I think the focus on sisterhood really emotionally drew me in. Her books are visceral and dark but SO GOOD.

I enjoy this authors thrillers. They’re good drama. That being said I was uncomfortable with all the flashbacks to the creepy pedophile saying creepy pedo things. Over and over. I get flashbacks but goddamn. Didn’t enjoy. Hated hearing actually. Sometimes far fetched insane thrillers are fun to theorize about and I’d say that was true with this one even though it was gross.
