Creepy, fast paced and a twisted and well planned out plot. The only reason it took me 4 days to read is because I knew it would freak me out reading at night! Though I’m admittedly biased, HIGHLY recommend if you’re into mysteries, thrillers, or queer relationships.

The premise, while interesting, is marred by the deadly slow (pun not intended) pacing at the beginning and it is only about half way through the book that it begins to pick up and get faster. I enjoyed the LGBTQ twist to the story as that isn't something you normally see in detective fiction, but it was not enough to save this book from being "meh" overall. The twist and solution at the end were very predictable and lackluster for me. Overall a 3/5 stars.

Slow start but it picked up. Kind of easy to figure out the ending.

This was absolutely horrifying and twisty in the best way. It gets really suspenseful earlier than a lot of thrillers but carries that energy throughout it so well. Such a good plot and so well carried out. And it has a queer main character, without queerness being a major plot point, which makes it even better!

Guessed the twist. Wasn’t super happy with the ending. Still enjoyable though.
