Not very compelling writing or plot. I was interested enough to finish it, but mostly because it was a quick read.

Definitely felt like the author had a tab open of all autism stereotypes when writing Dawn.

everyone is terrible

I really enjoy McFadden’s books. Whenever I am in a reading slump, I know that I will definitely be able to get through them. This one was okay to me. It may be that I am on a thriller burn out, but something fell flat for me. I don’t think it had the shocking twist that usually happens in her books. That is not to say that certain elements of the books weren’t twisty. I do feel that every character in this book is AWFUL though.

I did enjoy this one but it’s definitely not a favourite of Freidas of mine. The twists at the end got me again, some small parts I did manage to guess and a few other bits did shock me. I wasn’t the biggest fan of Dawn throughout, I felt like we didn’t really connect with her. It was a bit of a rollercoaster with Natalie, I loved her at the beginning then started to dislike her, then started to like her again
