Great page turner and very twisty but the themes in this book…..!!!!! 😵‍💫
How can the author justify making a pedophile the victim in this story, and person he groomed a villain just because she ends up being a murderer!!!!  MAKE IT MAKE SENSE

I was really excited for this book. I definitely hyped it up more in my head so I ended up being a little let down. 

Overall, it was twisty and weird. I loved the concept of the plot but wasn’t 100% thrilled with the execution. 

I would have loved to seen more with Josie’s family. Some truth. 

I think what I don’t like about this book is the unreliable characters & how you don’t actually know what’s completely true.

I thought this book was fantastic. The use of interesting but unreliable characters has you hooked the entire way through. As you slowly start to figure out what is happening, putting the pieces together to solve the mystery of the main character, you realize that everyone is lying. Not just her. 

The ONLY thing I didn’t like was the fact that they tried to make a literal PEDOPHILE a victim in this book. No thanks.
