Rating as a movie: N-17 for violence, disturbing themes, and content
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
My thoughts: 11% - Interesting opening, but then it got real. I'm going back to Sugarberry Cove.
25% - I might have to quit this one. The story is good but too graphic for my taste.
32% - I saw that coming.
50% - I went from not sure if I wanted to hear more to getting annoyed every time I had to get out of the car. Now, I'm at home and free to enjoy this book uninterrupted for the rest of the evening.
81% - I have solved this case, and I'm rewarding myself with a long break. And by break, I mean, I'm starting another book.
I'm not sure if it is predictable if you figure everything out 75% in even though the author hasn't revealed it yet. Anyway, this book was written well and held my interest but also repulsed me. I wanted to slap MC, but she was young and had some excuses for her stupidity. There were plotholes but the way the story flowed; I didn't even care.
Recommend to others?: Sure, but this book isn't for those with sensitive palates; my senses were definitely violated.
