Could've been good but too confusing. Needed more backstory on Libby and witches. 

This book kept me reading but it was not as suspenseful as The Girl on the Train. There were places where the writer overused certain words/phrases, and there were a lot of characters to keep track of, but overall it was a good story.

The story for me is not too strong , i couldn't enjoy the "Mystery" till the end of the book.
What made me cut one star from my rating was the huge number of characters in the book , i dont know if i am wrong but i think the author added some unnecessary persons too in the story. I doubt that i remember all the characters and i finished the book few hours ago.
