This book was good... entertaining. Definitely gave me creepy vibes, but wasn't too thrilling. it honestly just felt like a fiction book about a girl who's mother was a killer, ya know what i mean? it just didn't hit. it didn't FEEL like a thriller.

I FLEW through this book. I was held captive for a full 5.5 hours JUST reading. It is a psychological thriller that has you questioning your own sanity and morals. I will admit that some of it is a *little* predictable, but please do not let that stop you from reading it. The language and imagery the author uses is compelling and might have you gasp audibly once or twice. I would recommend this book HIGHLY.

This book should come with a trigger warning there is rape, self harm and violence. I was not prepared to hear about a few of the rapes. I wish i had known and i would have been able to prepare myself. This book took a huge turn of events. I figured that she would kill Phoebe. I just didn’t know how and I’m glad that we were told. I think it’s odd that the dad found out later and didn’t connect the dots until then.

While having a lot of potential, it just feel short ultimately. The badness never truly that bad, the reveal lackluster, no shock factor, no resolve at all.

Also while the "mean girl" bit was annoying I can only assume the author (and all authors) play that up for the drama as I'm pretty sure people like that don't actually exist, atleast I've been fortunate enough to never meet any
