⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - good book. will recommend to some
I enjoyed this book but I didn't love it. It felt VERY predictable to me. I looked back at my Kindle notes and found that everything that I noticed foreshadowed became part of the story. It's still a really good book, and one that I read in a day, just not GREAT if that makes sense.
This book is great for those who enjoy psychological thrillers and a strong female character. The ending made me very happy and made me feel like life has a way of bringing balance.
