This ended up being a really creepy and intriguing thriller to read. Since the start, it felt like something was off with both characters and as time goes on, there are more questions to be asked. The plot keeps you on your toes and even with knowing both characters, I wasn’t able to predict the ending. Everyone else in the town also left an uneasy feeling as you never knew their intentions or if they were telling the truth.
I listened this this on audiobook and I was entertained the entire time, which is exactly what I wanted in a thriller. Some of the dialogue was cringey, but it was mostly from Calvin and I chalked it up to him being a man… thinking he was deeper and smarter than he actually was.
i know the point of the book was for Grace to have had the upper hand all along, but with how cruel Calvin ended up being I wish there was a bigger fight scene at the end. The ending as a whole just felt a little easy and not exactly the “good for her moment” I was expecting. I also wish we could’ve found out why Calvin had liked killing so much and if it started with his girlfriend or before that. For as creepy as he ended up being, I wish we could’ve had more answers from him.
