For my film and lit class. First fifty pages are slow and Rachel’s POV is not as exciting as Megan’s. When Megan disappears, that’s when things start to pick up. Quite literally a train wreck I couldn’t look away from. I couldn’t stop reading it because of how I needed to know more even if it was somewhat a painful. It’s fine for what it is.
