WTF kind of ending was that supposed to be?

No, thank you. Cheap gimmicks used for shock value or “gotcha” moments are a sign of lazy writing. It was a pretty good thriller until then, which is why it gets 2 stars instead of one.

This book got me hooked pretty much from the beginning. I definitely had no idea where it was going and the two plot twists and different people being accused kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. Definitely a good read!!

You know the characters are insufferable when you’re rooting for the killer
