Review:
This was my second book by this author and let me just say, I thought I had this story figured it out but guess what? I didn't and now I'm just speechless on what to say other than this totally messed with my mind towards the end and that's normally what I look for in a psychological thriller and Alex Michaelides totally delievered once again on his promise to totally blow your mind with his writing and I believe he's becoming one of my new favorite thriller authors along with Riley Sager and I couldn't have been more happier to have found him when I read his newest release The Fury last year before he dropped it this January and so I decided to give this backlist book a try and like I said earlier in my review what a mindbending novel this was. Highly recommend you take a chance on this book and not to mention this was 2nd 6 star book I read this year.
