Wow, this was a good book! It was like watching a Lifetime Channel drama/thriller movie. Intriguing from beginning to end!

I really enjoyed this book! I was in a bit of a reading slump, and this book plulled me out. Yes, I figured out the twist early on, but I think that was the point, to just enjoy the journey and it didn't take away from the book in my opinion. Loved the dual perspective and the writing style.

Truly one of the most infuriating books I've ever read (make better decisions gf, please !!!), but I was quickly hooked on it and flew through it.

This book shocked me. The amount of manipulation and deception, just wow. The plot and characters were very well developed. 
Warnings: There is some language. The couple does engage in sex but there aren’t any details.

I enjoyed this book and it kept me engaged. About halfway through the book, you start to see the writing on the wall. At this point, while reading I would become frustrated that the deceptive party’s actions were being missed by her sister - but that’s how the tension was built. As I said, about halfway through you can pretty much tell what’s going on, but there are still some interesting reveals to be had at the end.

I loved the neurodivergent representation seen in Fern. The author did a fantastic job portraying her inner battles.
