Mmm I did not really like this book. Def kept me on the edge of my seat, but it got kinda gory sometimes. And it was too long.

The twist wasn’t as exciting as I’d hoped and was a bit slow. Still a good read.

I had high hopes for this thriller/mystery, but unfortunately it fell flat. The story moved along pretty quickly as the body count rose, but I think the author tried to include too many twists. I didn’t like the reason behind the killings and I hated the ending.
