2.5

I saw another review that summed this up pretty well… no one can know, not even the reader when this book is over! I love a good psychological thriller, but this one fell pretty flat for me. I was intrigued in the beginning, but figured out who did it for pretty early on. The middle dragged on and the ending was so convoluted and anti-climactic in my opinion. So, upon further reflection, maybe this is more of a 2.5 for me than a 3…

This is insanely readable and the sisters keeping secrets no matter what was really interesting to read about. I devoured this book and even though there wasn't anything new and unique about this thriller, I think it was done so well and I really enjoyed both the past and the present storyline, it kept me at the edge of my seat the entire time. Kate Alice Marshall is becoming one of my new favorite thriller authors and I'm so here for it!
