1.0

When Eden Miller's husband announces he's leaving her after dropping off their daughter to college, this leads to a series of events of Eden getting back in contact with her old college crush, but as the texts continue, it seems that Justine knows just a little too much about her...

This is without a doubt the most BORING thriller I've ever read. I rarely give books one star. But I had to here. It was just so dull and predictable with some pretty ridiculous revelations that had no built up and no impact.

Writing was very flat, got a loose sense of characterization and plot. The book is just not at all interesting, I was never gripped or at the edge of my seat. I have read some terrible thrillers before, but none that just was plain boring. I just can't use any other word for it.

Just flat writing, tired interesting plot, no gasps of surprise, and just boring. So, glad I got this book for free.

Please skip this, there are so many better thrillers out there. I won't read this author again.
