i have never wanted to give a book five stars so fast. reading this literally felt like watching a movie and it was so so so good. honestly i’ve never felt dread from a book  before and this one filled me with so much anxiety for the characters😭😭 an absolute must read and a top recommendation from now on!!!

Madre mía, como me he gozado este libro! Intrigadísima de principio a fin, me ha gustado muchísimo! El set up, los personajes, los plot twist… cuando sospechas de algo, la autora viene y te pone otra idea en mente para luego volver a darle la vuelta a la tortilla. Da gusto leer algo de misterio cortito y que te enganche tanto que no quieras dejar de leerlo.

i did not think i would enjoy this as much as i did. the characters were interesting and semi-flushed out (especially for a thriller). the plot was interesting, the twists and turns kept me guessing, and it was truly thrilling. i thought this was great to read in the winter.

I haven't really read much thriller books like these so I'm not sure how to rate this properly.

It was enjoyable and did have some shock factors. 
It's a solid thriller book, I liked it.

This book absolutely slapped. I was on the edge of my proverbial seat while reading it. The main character is not perfect and I like her more for being realistic and flawed. It's extremely suspenseful and tense, but a quick read. I loved it.
