This was terrible. The reason why it's a 2 star is because someone has taken the time to write this book and that deserves some credit. Also, the beginning had me hooked, albeit with a false sense of security.

This was just insufferable. I hated our MC, and I normally love a MC that we are not supposed to like but Grace was just annoying. She also doesn't shut up... this honestly could have been 50 pages. I'm not kidding. Grace rambles on about pointless things that does not compliment the plot.

I feel like the author tried to include social issues, so many social issues, but doesn't actually explore them. Just complains about everything. On that note, the whole narrative of this book was negative, but we are supposed to find that funny? Just no.

If you like your sanity then I would truly avoid this one.

A good book for people who are new to reading thrillers. Fast paced, easy to follow and worth reading. The main character is unlikeable at times but I think we’re supposed to think that.
