I thought this was a great thriller, and the ending was really cool. The characters were also really flawed and realistic, I enjoyed how they all fit in with each other. The best part was how the author used the idea of inaccurate memories (even gaslighting to an extent) throughout the book. Kind of slow-paced, but definitely recommend.

This book was so engaging and pretty well-paced, until the last few dozen pages. The ending was disappointing and seemed to be thrown together hastily. On a whole this was an addictive, dark read with some really curious characters and some experimental type layouts.
