Yeah, I just...

I have no idea what to make of this book, other than to say I did not like the ending and the parents in this book are easily the most inexplicable of parents ever. I'm not even sure what the point of all this was.

This book had one of my real big hates there were too many characters to keep a track of and for this the book was really not good for me I only read it because I wanted to know what happened to the girl but in the end nothing really got resolved and I think it was a bit of a pointless book but it's just my personal feelings of the book

Not the right mood and time for a mystery. I will try again in the fall maybe.

One of the more disappointing books I’ve read in a long while!

I just think Lisa Jewell really did not have to describe two 13 year olds having sex in this

Very disappointed in the lack of resolve. There was no real climax. It was kind of a pointless story?
