the storyline was interesting but it could have been written better. it took me a while to realize there were three different timelines - Meredith’s POV right before going missing, Kate’s POV right after Meredith went missing, and Leo 11 years later. The timelines kind of confused me, and i wish it was done as a day, month, and year, so i know exactly when each chapter was set. instead, for both Meredith’s and Kate’s POVs, both just said “11 years ago” even though they didn’t happen at the same exact time, so the timeline was vague.
