Fun :) Predictable twists but still entertaining the way they unfold. Some loose ends but nothing crazy. Lots of red herrings but again still entertaining.

Content Warnings

Graphic: Suicidal thoughts

Moderate: Death of parent, Self harm, Violence, and Murder

Minor: Suicide

certain things didn’t tie up nicely like

how exactly did Det. Collins set up the suicide note and the diary in this situation? And how did Avery not notice blood stains on sheets?

Some reveals were great like the

car being used to take sadie

but the reveal about

Avery being the owner of the rental properties

was odd and since it was maybe in the very last paragraph of the book you had no time to think about it and it just made me sort of dislike Avery.
