At no point did I know where this book was going and how or when it was going to end, in the best way possible. I listened to this audiobook in one sitting because I just had to know where this story was going. 
Michaelideas has a way of letting readers think they know everything and nothing at the same time. His twists and turns never disappoint. 
The narrative style in this novel is not like anything I have read before. The narrator is the narrator, a character, and omniscient all at the same time, which I found to be a fascinating read. 
Michaelides has proved himself to have a specific writing style and he's sticking to it because it works so well for him. Definitely a must read for thriller fans. 
Thank you to NetGalley and Celadon Books for an ARC of this title in exchange for an honest review.
