It’s dark and tense but still manages to be very digestible. I enjoyed Rachel and witnessing her growth. I found her to be a very realistic character and her journey was methodical, which I appreciated. I don’t understand the point of Emily’s POV, it seemed somewhat unnecessary. I also don’t think her backstory justifies her role in the plot.

Great thriller. While I wish there was an epilogue from Cecelia, just to get her view, still a 5 star read for me. I did the audio and it was immaculate.

I was intrigued from beginning until the near end. The second person POV really made the story. I would have appreciated more repercussions for Aidan and more healing for May/Rachel.

 2.5 stars. This was a bit frustrating... I questioned every decision made by the MFC. The whole of the plot was bit over the top and unrealistic as I couldn't really grasp the motives of the antagonist.
