I have decided to save my 5 stars for books that steal my heart and won't let go... This was a close one simply because I HAD NO IDEA what the end result was going to be until they spelled it out for me and WOW! I absolutely didn't expect it to be anything like it was and I'm thankful for it. It makes reading these books all the more fun when I haven't figured out the plot before I'm halfway into the story! I don't like going over what happens in the story at all because I don't want to accidentally give away anything but I do want to warn others that if addiction is a real trigger for you - then I would consider reading something else as there are a couple times that it gets very explicit in details. Otherwise I 10 out of 10 recommend reading if you like thriller/mystery books! I listened on Spotify but halfway through saw the book at Walmart and decided to get it because it actually shows the pictures that little Teddy is drawing and I would absolutely recommend getting the physical copy!
