Racial slurs were completely unnecessary to the plot. Writing was repetitive. Plot dragged on and on. Was taken out of the story many times. Skip this book

Could not put this one down. Watching the story unfold and the mind games play out was just... *chef's kiss*

This is honestly one of my favorite thrillers I’ve ever read. I devoured this and was constantly thinking about it when I couldn’t be reading it. 

It was super twisty and kept me on my toes. The ending also made me cry—I don’t think I’ve EVER cried over a thriller! This was a great one. Perfectly plotted and worth studying.

I read this based off a recommendation from a friend, and I am so glad I trusted her.

Is this one of those books I'm going to think about for the rest of my life? No. But I really enjoyed this. It pulled me out the reading slump I could feel myself sliding into. The way Adams structured the tension within scenes and chapter to chapter kept pulling me along for the ride, it was almost beyond me to put my e-reader down. I will admit that the number of times where something that was planted in an earlier scene paid off perfectly later does strain credulity sometimes. But honestly, I'd rather that than twists thrown in for shock value, so I didn't mind all that much.
