Interesting and kept my attention. The twist was too twisty. Very confusing. I didn’t care for the main male character Joel. I couldn’t understand his appeal. Cassie was likeable but too young and impressionable which was required for the plot. The ending felt hasty. Not my favorite of Frieda’s.

Not my favorite book by Freida. It just wasn’t really attention grabbing to my or interesting. So many details were just boring and it took me a lot longer to read it than most of her books. When I did get to the part where Anne came out as the Ex I was a little shocked that it was her, but I felt like it could’ve been more entertaining throughout.
