🗝️ This book has everything a good thriller asks for: times suspense, a tense environment, an exhilarating thrill and a sense of mystique and an ominous ambience that pulls you into the plot. McFadden is a genius and this book deserves all the laud and popularity it received.
🗝️ This book met all of my expectations. Which is why I read it in less than a day. The plot twists were perfectly introduced, in a way you'd never expect. The characters were not lovable in the traditional and obvious way. But they came with a level of intrigue so strong and convincing that you're hooked.
