Thanks to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review. I'm always very happy about an ARC and being able to give it a review! <3

The book starts off super exciting and I couldn't put it down.

If you like an unreliable character who you don't fully trust, then this is the right book for you. You could also read Claire's diary entries - but I don't know if they were necessary at all..

Unfortunately, it was clear to me pretty early on in which direction it was going.. but I'd hoped that there would be a really good twist at the end.. The ending wasn't bad, don't get me wrong, but I was just hoping for something completely different/bigger. The ending was too simple.. too boring.

I still had a good time, I LOVED the writing style and would definitely still recommend the book at any time!
