The plot twists and overall direction of this book were a little gimmicky for me personally. I felt like it was trying to do too much just for the sake of shock factor.

I’m not sure what the fuck I just read. The majority of the book was just ‘The Woman in the Window’ yk the movie/book. An alcoholic widow spying on her next door neighbor blahblahblah except this book is 5000x worse. The plot twist really were plot twist in the sense they made no sense to the “plot”. There were so many plotlines running that weren’t needed, the supernatural aspect came out of NOWHERE. Like actually where did it come from. The author also cannot make a convincing female leading. I just… no words.

This book was good until it wasn’t. The “twist” was ridiculous and ruined the book for me.

Two stars because I liked the characters.
