it's giving..... Gone Girl.


this book is definitely hard to put down, but for me didn't feel that way until about halfway through. i enjoyed the dichotomy of the husband/wife POV, but

the ending felt very rushed. I wanted more hints to it being Sarah. I thought it around when Adam
recognized the handwriting, but it all got wrapped up in a bow a little too quickly. And I'm assuming Bob was her random visitor the one night? Since her daughter is 8?

The plot twists and hunt for answers kept me engaged. I would definitely read another book by Jeneva Rose.

I just….. wow. I really didn’t see that coming. and I DEFINITELY didn’t see the second hidden little jab coming either. This was an emotional rollercoaster of a book but it kept me on my toes!!

Eh. Feels equally like a good idea only half executed, and a bandaid ending when they couldn't find the right one. Also the pov from his side is generally gross, honestly.
