I ate this book up in two days. Was it the best thing I've ever read? No. But it kept me interested in wanting to know how it ended. I don't regret reading this at all. Kind of wish there was a sequel. I need to know more please. 😭

Definitely didn’t see that coming. The twist is absolutely diabolical. All the male characters are creepy as shit — it really could’ve been anyone. This book kept me enthralled. I finished it in 24 hours. Plot is pretty realistic as well which I appreciate in a thriller.

That was a bit of fun. Some frustrating parts and annoying characters who make silly choices. But a good twisty thriller.
