The Villa by Rachel Hawkins
dark
mysterious
reflective
fast-paced
4.5
Me, at the beginning: Okay this is fun, but I’m pretty sure I know what’s going on. A bit predictable.
Me, at the very end: OKAY OKAY RACHEL HAWKINS. I did NOT know what was going on.
This was a really enjoyable read for me! The first 90% of the book felt a little predictable- while still entertaining- but the final chapter was a twist I did not expect.
I really loved the themes and parallels between characters in this novel. It’s a pretty easy read but would also make an amazing book club pick to deep dive into.
