OMG. I LOVE the twisty nature of this book. Whilst a little slow to start you’ll want to clear up your calendar for the second half of this book. Oh my.

dark emotional mysterious sad tense medium-paced

3.0

It was a slow start. I did enjoy this book partly. I would not read it again though as there was 1 page that it took me a long time to get through. I wish Colleen Hoover gave warning better I read this. Atleast I would have known a bit about what I was getting into.

Wow! This was a dark book but very good. This was my first Colleen Hoover and will not be my last. It had a dark tone with mystery thrown in and two points of view. Such an interesting read.

2.0

Every single character in this was a villain. I'm giving it 2 stars because I genuinely enjoyed the suspense, but if I believed in book burning, this would be one of the first victims. 

Verity makes me feel physically ill. Team manuscript. 
Lowen is spineless, invasive, clingy, and a homewrecker. 
Jeremy is also spineless, also a homewrecker, and somehow blinded to psychopathy with abundant fellatio. 

Something about the way this was written, just thinking about one mother writing another mother's perspective in this way, that makes my skin crawl.
Verity solidifies for me that I find nothing redeemable or admirable about CoHo's writing. This was my last attempt.
