Audiobook. I didn’t mind this book, but didn’t love. Super predictable and nothing really crazy happened. Ending was quick and felt really rushed. Was a good one to listen to leisurely!

Quick & easy thriller, full of juicy twists.

First fifty pages or so was slow. I almost put it down. But I'm so glad I didn't because the rest of it was a wild ride and I loved every minute of not knowing what would happen next.

Entertaining, new twist old idea

Not gonna lie, I had ZERO idea it was a retelling of Jane Eyre. This definitely got me, the old switcheroo and the back and forth between the different points of view was SO GOOD. Really well done.
