At only about 260 pages, I was able to get through this pretty quickly. The story was intriguing and the mystery and relation of the two sister disappearances definitely kept me interested. However, I felt a lot of the dialogue and events that happened were kind of surface level, and everything at the end wrapped up quickly comparatively. I was left a tiny bit unsatisfied by it all and wanting a bit more. Still, it was an enjoyable, suspenseful, quick read.

Definitely not what I expected, but an interesting read with an interesting twist at the end. 
I didn't really find any of the characters likeable and the ending vindicated that feeling. 

I did appreciate the change in perspective at the end to better explain what happened, but I still have a few unanswered questions.

Didn't love this book like I was hoping. I found Nic rather annoying and the whole story didn't seem realistic honestly. The twist wasn't something I had thought of but kept you on your toes!
