Okay I really enjoyed this book. Yes, it’s far-fetched. Yes, it’s unrealistic. Yes, it’s like watching a Lifetime movie unfold. But, nevertheless, I enjoyed reading this.
This is a very strong 3-star read for a few reasons.
I really enjoyed the setting, the coastal town, the restaurants, the place Lydia makes her home, all of it.
I also really liked our 2 FMC. I found myself rooting for both of them at different points. I enjoyed their internal monologues a lot which I can’t say for a lot of books.
The biggest plot twist I didn’t see coming *because* of the internal monologues, these bitches misguided us ON PURPOSE! and I loved that!
The writing was good, the plot was good, it was easy to read and I’m a happy girl. I’ll be checking out more of the author’s work in the future.

Oh what a twisty thriller that was slow to burn but scorched at its finish. I have to admit the big twist I had guessed very early on unfortunately. I was actually cooking at the time and I was thinking about the book and it almost felt like a lightbulb formed over my head like no, surely? But yes it’s one of those twists which I guessed but actually hoped I was right. The second twist I didn’t see coming at all. My mouth opened and I had to put my kindle down for a few seconds. I was literally gobsmacked. Another great thriller by Minka Kent I can’t wait to read more!

This book was easy to get into. I enjoyed how each chapter was back in forth between Lydia & Merritt. I endulged in this as an immersive reading which I’m glad I did. I did not guess the several plot twist that happened & I think that made this book even better to me. The mastermind was not as smart as they thought at the end of the day.

I thought I had figured out what was going to happen in this book but there were so many twist and turns! I would have never guessed it would end the way it did. I could not put this down!!

Underwhelming. I listened on Audio and would have probably DNF’d otherwise. The twists worked well (if a little far fetched) but the ending was abrupt and unsatisfying
