No specific spoilers, but still spoilers!!!



Really liked the beginning and middle part of the book, a lot was happening, fast paced, lots of drama, but because it started of so strong I expected more of the ending, really not as cruel or sickening as expected. Had a nice plot twist tho. Overall a good read, just  really different than I expected both in the (mostly) positive sense and a little in the negative.

Loved this book. From the blurb it really doesnt seem like something you could make 400+ pages out of. But it's gripping, it's emotional in places & overall just a good read.


I did have some issues with the whole being watched thing. I mean the first half of the book Anna was contacted a Lot and followed A lot but then it just seemed to suddenly stop happening. Cameras in her house but yet she gets another phone and they don't realise? Was a bit annoying on that part.

MASSIVE SPOILERS !!!!!!! 
I was shocked that  Anna actually set Margot up to be murdered??? it actually made me dislike her a lot more as a character. I just started to feel for Margot and understand her as a person and then just like that Anna destroys it. I can't help but think it could've worked out better if they had spoken to each other more and didn't ignore each other from their own biases. Was a bit sad honestly.

This is one of the best books I have read for a while. It isn’t the predictable but easy to follow and I read it all in two days! The characters are deeply human and somehow make you feel sorry for them even in awful circumstances. My only criticism would be the ending which I feel leaves much to be desired and fails to tie up many ‘what ifs’ from the book.
