I was definitely stressed out by this one, but not necessarily in a good way. Infidelity (with the nanny!), blackmail, missing people - this had a lot going on! But my library checkout ran out in the middle, and I kind of didn’t care. I did ultimately finish It though. A good thriller should be unputdownable. This was…fine. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

It’s okay. The grammar really drove me crazy. It wasn’t incorrect but it was very stylistic and that made some sentences hard to read. There were some tropes, but also some good twists. The ending was satisfying. I’d say it’s worth the read if you like books where everything connects in the end.
