the perfect child was free on audible & decided to give this author a chance. by 20%, i stopped & ran straight to my kindle. while the audible was nice, it was too slow for me & i needed to dive deeper into the story faster. definitely a page turner & i couldnt stop until i finished it. i have to say… the ending was just not it. i love books that don’t always give happy endings but i felt like i didnt get any thing, not even so much of a tiny closure. it felt like the end of a chapter & not a book! but thankfully it has a sequel in which i’ll be reading right away.

Knocked a star off because Christopher really annoyed me and the ending was just…. Abrupt. I was hoping for more just to tie up the end of the Baurs story. The beginning was boring af too so I almost stopped reading but then I pushed through and I consumed to book very quickly. Definitely will read more books by Dr Berry.
