i felt like the coma chapters were really slow and dragged for me. the twists were okay but some of them seemed so pointless. some of the twists were unnecessary and awful. it brought the book down so far for me. there was no reason for some of the book content to be in there.

while this is my least favorite of hers so far, that’s not saying much as I gave all of her others 4.5-5 stars 🫡 definitely an auto buy author and twist QUEEN!
and when I saw twist queen, I mean it!! I did guess the initial one around halfway, but they kept swinging until the very end! I think this is one of my most tabbed thriller books 😅
the MC, amber, is your typical unreliable narrator … or is that what she wants you to think? bouncing between past diary entries, 2 weeks prior, and present day, I absolutely loved the way you didn’t know what action amber was going to take next!
and the part that had me cackling the most is that from the very first page, amber tells the reader that she sometimes lies, and yet, here I am every time she lies: 😨🫣🤡
there were a LOT of red herrings in the side characters that basically went nowhere, and there are a TON of trigger warnings that I will post at the end of this review - so I had a hard time reading and digesting some parts
BUT I am simply unable to put down anything alice feeney writes - this is now an alice feeney stan account 🫡
make sure to follow me on instagram for my eventual alice feeney book rankings!! one more to go!!
rating: 4 stars
