Wow! That was my reaction to the ending of this story. This is a solid four star read and a great thriller that I read in a single sitting. Now that is how I know it's a good one.  After I finished, I did go back through to look at my notes and I did guess pretty early on who was behind everything, but I never would have guessed how they plotted everything. That one threw me for a loop. I did like the pacing of this book, how all throughout the book a different story is being written than the one you are reading. 

Also, the fake acknowledgements at the end had me grabbing the book and saying, "you're kidding right?"

Then after I hoped my dad didn't hear me and wake up lol. If I was in a house by myself at a secluded area where I didn't know anyone, I'd be freaking out through this reading. 

Definitely recommend to others who like thrillers and faced paced reads that keep you on your toes.
