1.0

About the first 3/4 of the book was heavily focused on their relationships and waited until the last 1/4 of the book to introduce thriller elements. Once the thriller part started, it felt very rushed and like every trope was thrown into the plot.

Also, this book was set in the 2020 pandemic and constantly reminded the reader of it. V annoying :(
