PLEASE CHECK TRIGGER WARNINGS
edit// I've read two novellas by this author, and both were thriller/suspense with content that can definitely be considered disturbing and sensitive, but Ive noticed that I haven't seen any trigger warnings in the books. Maybe I need to check the website?
---
This would have been a four or four point five star review if the author did not keep insinuating that people with mental illness, people suffering from drug and alcohol addiction, and/or people who are promiscuous, are inherently, evil or bad.
I'm not religious, so I ignored all the religious connotations about how certain people are evil because they don't have God within them. Because it was evident that the main character and the main character's mother did not have very much God within themselves,based on the revengeful actions, they both separately took. So the character's in the book were basically chalk calling the baby powder white? They were hypocrites.
Other than that, the book was really entertaining for like a thriller suspense, and honestly, the surprises and twists just kept coming, so that was enjoyable.
