Well.. this book consumed me to the point I physically couldn’t put it down. Dark, sinister, twisty, suspenseful, captivating, thought-provoking, addictive, completely jaw-dropping, breathtaking.. the list could go on. Verity had to say the least some pretty fucked up chapters where I literally through the book away from me I was so disgusted. I wanted to claw my eyes out with what I was reading, yet it had me going back for more. It is incredibly well-written but I felt the ending was a bit rushed. I haven’t read anything like Verity before and I have read a few CoHo books but this is definitely different to anything else she has written.
