I read this in one afternoon because I couldn’t put it down. This is a great suspense novel that keeps you both guessing and turning pages quickly. Could I be picky and find flaws? I’m sure. But my thing when I’m reading suspense or thrillers is that I don’t want it to be too easily predictable. I want a good twist. And this one definitely delivered there.

I read this book to get myself out of a reading slump.
It was excellent for that. I would actually say I rated this 3.5 but rounded up to 4.
I enjoy the intrigue, the mystery, the twists. I enjoyed how quickly the book was paced. I enjoyed how the characters stayed true to their arcs.
I wouldn’t consider anyone in this book the “hero”. None of the characters are especially likable and I wasn’t ever rooting anyone on. I was just along for the messy ride.
This isn’t a masterful work of art, but definitely speaks to my lifetime movie, desperate housewives as a guilty pleasure self.

I was not prepared for how shocking the twists in this book were! Just when you think you know what is happening, something happens and you are left sitting in utter shock and HAVE to keep reading to make sense of the emotional roller coaster you have found yourself on. Highly recommend for anyone that loves a book that you need some time to process once you are done!

Fun twists but it was easy for me to predict most of where the plot was going.
3/5 stars - wouldn't recommend, although I did enjoy the read. Maybe I say this because every other book I read has a similar plot to this one.
