What in the world did I read. I actually would have DNF this book like 8% in but I guess I’m a glutton for punishment cuz I read it all the way till end. It was trashed. I love a good thriller and I thought ok this will
Be like a lifetime movie novel. But no. Lifetime does it better. I don’t like the writing style and everyone in the book is a very unlikeable character. Maybe just one. And he is only there for 5 min.
The parents suck. How can you choose to
Separate the two twins from each other. And think that’s ok and how does an author write a book about twins who are not close to each other because they were separated for 6 years but actually lived an hour way from each other and seen each other every weekend or so. Like have it make sense.
Ivy is upset that no one believes here but she has. Been complaining about her sister from day one. There is a lot of telling not showing in the book that make it unbearable. This book is a nope. Sorry. I may try another one of her books. But the ending of this book was so
