Loved it. I have yet to read a McFadden that doesn’t surprise me. I am still shook. How did I not see it coming?!

Not the best book I’ve read by this author but good for a different type of read. I found myself not really connecting with many of the characters and guessing some of the plot twists.

I honestly don’t know how I feel part of me feels like I was being gaslit the entire time, even though I knew what was going on, especially towards the end. They were definitely trying harder to make us believe it was this one specific person just to have it flipped on its head, so yeah I would say it’s an OK read nothing spectacular.
