This book started off slowly, but once it picked up it REALLY picked up. I was on the edge of my seat and devoured the second half of the book.

This was a very disturbing story that had you questioning “Why didn’t she just call the police?!” the whole time. I think Alix’s character and motivation for recording the podcast wasn’t explored more than one scene. I just didn’t buy into the reason they gave.

kashby's review against another edition

i liked the first two acts but when the theme went from being about how people who experience trauma sometimes gain the capability to harm others into how this girl is cray cray 😝 and forced an old man to date her i was kind of over it. the writing was really good but i just didn’t really fw the ending or how walter’s character was handled.
