This was such a thrilling read, I was so anxious the whole time while reading. I loved Ace of Spades so I was really excited for this and Sleeping Girls did not disappoint.

I didn’t enjoy the writing style of this book. It was too plain, lacked description and was very literal. The mystery was compelling enough to keep me reading. I was genuinely invested in the plot. However, the twist was underwhelming. It was too nonsensical and out of place.
