The Last Secret You'll Ever Keep by Laurie Faria Stolarz
2.0
This book started out so strong and I was actually sucked in and ready to embark on her journey with her. I'll admit the premise of the book was very enticing and I was captured in the first few chapters...after that it gets kind of bumpy and very confusing.
Trying to keep up with an unreliable main character was difficult, but not impossible. I would have preferred to have an alternating point of view from a side character. Just a way to see outside of the main character to try and build our own timeline. We weren't able to access the whole situation which led to some moments of .... okay and that matters, why? Then you find out those very FEW mentions were important.
Too much emphasis on specific details while other scenes lacked detail all around. With a heavier hand in editing this story could have been so much better.
Thank you netgalley and publisher for providing an eARC
