This book has sent me absolutely speechless. As a thriller fan usually I find that plots can be predictable and end up disappointing me. SO I DID NOT EXCEPT THIS ROLLERCOASTER!!!

Pippa was an incredible character and her development and care for her family and friends really made me love her. 
At the beginning of the book I thought I was going to have everything figured out right? I thought I knew what was going to happen… but ohhhhhh was I wrong! The twists and turns really gripped me until the last couple of pages.

The writing of the book was really well done and I really enjoyed not only the plot but the way it was written.

Can’t wait to read the next book in the series ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book was so incredible, it had me theorising and questioning who I thought it could be, and the relationship between characters was well done and amazing. Part Three had me crying a few times, and the ending was more shocking than my own theories, and it wasn't predictable at all. Also, Pip and Ravi's relationship was adorable. There were moments where I was laughing, somewhere I was crying, and some that had me holding my breath. I loved it and can't wait to get the next two books by Holly Jackson.
