A good 4-4.5 stars. I thought it was gonna suck but it was actually really good! Loved the plot and it just kept getting messier and messier with twists that I did not expect at all. A little bit of mystery, a little bit of romance it was perfect!

I wasn't prepared for the twist at the end. Maybe I should have been. Since I didn't see it coming I am giving this a higher rating. It was an interesting read.

Secara karakter Dawson agak berbeda dengan tipe hero-hero SB yang biasanya judes. Walau dia memendam trauma sebagai wartawan perang, dia charming, ramah, sarkastis dan lucu. Interaksinya dengan Amelia dan anak-anaknya benar-benar memikat. Sebagai seorang pria yang dihantui mimpi buruk dan ketergantungan obat dia adalah hero yang perfectly imperfect.

Deadline sudah menyita perhatianku sejak chapter pertamanya. Buku ini bukan hanya memberikan misteri yang harus dikupas perlahan tapi juga konsisten menjatuhkan kejutan demi kejutan nyaris di setiap chapternya. Kita juga akan dibuat terus menebak tentang hubungan antara keluarga Amelia dengan buronan pemerintah yang tak berhasil ditangkap berpuluh-puluh tahun silam.

Walaupun sang villain dan keluarganya sudah kita ketahui dan muncul sejak awal buku, bahkan punya chapter-chapter yang menggambarkan PoV serba tahu darinya, ketegangan yang dihasilkan buku ini tetap terbangun. Tipe unik penggambaran buku ini mengingatkanku pada serial Criminal Minds dimana kita diajak ikut menyelami pola pikir dan rencana-rencana gelap dari si Villain.

Buku ini adalah harta karun yang kutemukan di Ijak, semoga ke depannya akan ditambahkan banyak judul-judul menarik lainnya.

My Rating :
Star : 4/5
Bikini : 1/5

A pontuação justa seriam 2,5*, não seria justo dar as 3* em comparação com outros livros dela, que já li, e que foram bem melhores.
A história é promissora, começa até de forma interessante, no entanto a meio do livro já estava aborrecida e sem grande incentivo paracontinuar.
Não posso dizer que não gostei, mas não está ao nível dos que li anteriormente.
É que nem as personagens me convenceram ou sequer encantaram.
