⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 

Oooh, this was an excellent thriller. The writing was very fast-paced (maybe a bit too fast for a creepy thriller like this) and I would have preferred more slow burn, more moments where "nothing" happened to just build the tension a bit more. 

But the plot was great, though a bit predictable, and the characters were amazing. I wouldn't call Ji-won a likable character necessarily, but I get her. I get the frustrations and the anger. I would have loved to see more of Ji-hyun and Alexis, instead of some other characters, but overall this was a great debut novel and a good thriller.
