I literally hated every single person in this book even though the main character grew on me after a while 🧍🏻 All in all it kept me hooked and I wanted to know what happens next but it wasn't a page turner the way some other thrillers are. I'm not sure  how I felt about the ending (don't worry I won't spoil anything!) because I was torn between finding it surprising and finding it predictable at the same time so I'm not quite sure how I feel about it yet. Definitely not a mindblowing thriller but still worth the read!
