I loved this book. At first I was confused and frustrated because it focused so much on the narrator which didn’t make sense to me until I got further into the book and realized

he was more important to the story then I initially thought

. The twist left me speechless and I had to reread to really understand. This was one of my first thriller books and I love an

unreliable narrator, I was shocked.

This book was interesting to say the least. I had already been spoiled for the twist but I was still able to somewhat enjoy the story.

One of my issues was that since I knew the twist it was hard to be sympathetic to Theo. Alicia was failed by everyone in her life. Gabriel, her father, her mother, Jean-Felix. It was an interesting read knowing tha you are reading for the person responsible.  Seeing some of the slips Theo makes was fun to sort out.
