2.0
This started off strong, and I enjoyed switching perspectives and moving back and forth in the timeline to figure out the truth. Unfortunately the end felt a bit rushed and flat for me. Not a satisfying conclusion in my opinion. I enjoy Flynn’s style of writing, but unfortunately this one wasn’t a favourite for me.
Graphic: Animal cruelty, Animal death, Child death, and Blood
Moderate: Death, Drug abuse, Pedophilia, Suicidal thoughts, Violence, Death of parent, and Murder
