A super solid thriller/mystery that I couldn’t put down. Super messed up and gory (many TW) but I enjoyed it. The second half was a little bit predictable but still kept me incredibly engaged & wanting to see what happened. Claire got on my nerves a little bit (why are you putting on makeup when there are *much* more important things to be doing…?) but overall a really good read that kicked me out of a reading slump & is just what I’m looking for in this genre!
