Overall a very enjoyable read. I found myself skipping ahead on the page trying to figure out what was next and not wanting to put the book down (everything you want from a thriller novel). 

I found this book in a Little Lending Library on my street and picked it up since I recognized the title. Like many books I read I went in completely blind in terms of what this book was about. Going into it I though this book fell more into the general fiction category rather than thriller genre, but I was wrong. I enjoyed reading this book but that did take me by suprise. I don't think I will read the sequel just yet, and maybe get it on audiobook or wait until I am in a mood to read a thriller. At this moment, I don't feel particularly inclined to read the sample of the sequel that is included at the end of the book. I enjoyed Elle Cosimano's writing overall and I think I will try to read more of her young-adult novels.
