This book is a definite page turner. I like the subtle creepiness we are presented with from the very beginning. I must say I could not care how realistic the plot was, which has been criticised by others, I immersed nevertheless.

Engaging storytelling, even if the villain is obvious from the jump. This book feels like it’s trying to be something else, like the author asked chat GPT to help her outline a plot with certain elements in the spirit of Gone Girl.
