I saw the main “twist” from the first 50pgs. I did not appreciate people thinking with their sex drive rather than their brain. The ending was so convoluted & unrealistic. I have so many tabs throughout the entire book noting things that make no sense (to me).
I dunno… I’m sad it didn’t work for me because so many people love it.

An incredibly fast-paced crime/thriller novel about a woman on parole who is hired to be a live-in family maid. You can see twists and turns coming for the most part, but you don’t know the specifics and that’s what keeps you on your toes.
The change of POV at a critical point in the story didn’t leave me wanting more, in fact it answered some questions but also gave me a thirst for more answers.
The plot centring on the injustices of the prison system and how poorly women in abusive relationships are treated by law enforcement and the ‘establishment’ made it more impactful for me.
Other than the police chief person’s daughter being Andy’s ex (cliche, lazy, forced…), the ending (last chapter with Andy’s mum at the funeral and the epilogue with Millie being interviewed at a new place) chefs kiss.

A bit slow to start
Took me a bit to get used to the main character's Brooklyn accent in the audiobook.
A lot of uncomfortable scenes
