Fairly predictable twist, as I had a feeling I knew what was going on about a third of the way into the book. Still entertaining enough that I couldn’t put it down, and finished in about 24 hours.

This book was incredible!!! Definitely broke me out of a reading rut. The end is somewhat controversial as to who likes it, but I loved it. From the beginning, it kept me engaged and interesting and I truly loved it.

This book was an insane roller coaster. Like… Wow. 

Honestly though? I was right about a lot of it which is something I both love and hate. Since I was right, there wasn’t a whole lot of plot twists for me? But it was a good book nonetheless and a very good thriller.

Wow this book had some dark and grotesque twists and turns. Definitely a book that flexes your gut feelings and hunches. Kept me at the edge of my seat. Careful not to flip to the very last page because it has spoilers.
