3.5 stars. Fun but predictable thriller. Can't ask for more than that!

you watch any criminal minds, this book is going to feel repetitive. Being that I’ve watched the first 10 seasons multiple times, I knew exactly where this book was going. I’ll admit, the very end was slightly unpredictable but beyond that I felt like I knew what was going to happen and had a hard time getting into it.

I’m probably one of the few though so take this review with a grain of salt.

3.5 stars. So twisted. And sad. Definitely very predictable but I didn’t hate that it was because books like this give me anxiety & id rather know what’s happening then be worried about what’s going to happen next. The beginning was a bit boring. I really hate laurel she is an awful mother. I find it really hard to believe Floyd lived in the area & didn’t hear about Ellie’s disappearance until nearly 10 years later? Like what he should’ve immediately known who noelle was talking about when she told him Ellie was poppy’s real mother. It was really frustrating and bizarre reading from noelle’s point of view. Just how utterly irrational and insane she was.
