What. The. Fuck.
That’s how I felt about this book in the best way possible.
It was dark.
It was suspenseful.
It had twists I didn’t see coming.
ALSO! GET THIS…
Unlike, most thrillers this unreliable narrator was a man, so I was living for that, also there’s a cat POV so…I mean, could it get any better?
My most common complaint on thrillers is “it’s not dark enough…” WELL THIS ONE WAS ALL THE DARK EFFED UPNESS and I was here for it.
I can’t say much more without giving it away! But, if you can handle the triggers? I would definitely put this on your radar!
