3.5
I literally got to the last few chapters and I went “ah I know where this is going”. No the fuck you don’t. You think you do, but you absolutely do not.
All I can say is this book is crazy - between 2 unreliable narrators, time jumps, and secrets, it leaves you guessing until the end. The twist is unexpected in the best way, because it takes everything you thought you knew and turns it on its head. The ending bumps my star rating from like a 3 to a 3.5

I like that everything that's written has its purpose, like the narratives of a character's day are all purposeful here to build the character and the plot, so there's no case of when we're reading a character's daily life that sounds suspiciously mundane and it makes us wonder "why is this written? is something bad is going to happen?" like some thriller writers tend to do, even agatha christie. It makes things predictable. But it didn't happen here, everything flows naturally and purposeful. So clever. We also actually get hints all through out the book but nothing very obvious, just enough to keep the intrigue and wonder.

This book really kept me on my toes. So much more informative than the show on Netflix. The author does a brilliant job of weaving this story together, and my attention by showing so many different angles and perspectives!katrinasherise's review against another edition
