A good premise, but some of the developments seemed to be more for shock than plot. I couldn't stand any of the characters except Dan, which I think was the authors point.

I would have given this book a higher rating if not for the ending.

Dan whining about Emmy's job during the whole book (while being financially useless himself) only to have a complete 180 after he's able to take over the account and capitalize on it himself. What a scrub.

danaslitlist's review against another edition

medium-paced

2.0

What was the point of this book? Honestly,  what was the point of that ending? Because if this was supposed to be a critique on social media and the dangers of mommy bloggers why the hell would the author attempt to make us sympathize after everything we witnessed? Is that a commentary on how bad guys win? If so even that failed spectacularly.

I’m so mad that I wasted my time but even more mad that this has the bones of a great story but absolutely fumbled everything else

Towards the end there were chunks of the text I skimmed/skipped over as I just found the content a bit too much - advise to check trigger warnings!

The book felt as though the entire story  played out in the last 50 pages or so and was slow to get going. Having said this, it was an easy read and not bad, just not great.

adventurous dark lighthearted mysterious medium-paced

3.5

I pretty much hated everyone involved in this and that balanced out much of the predictability of the storyline.
This features infant death, suicide and infant endangerment.
