I received a ARC from the publisher. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Thank you to Celadon for the physical copy!
What happens when people with complex relationships— full of love and hate for another— get trapped on a remote island overnight?
This book was outside of my normal genre, but I enjoyed it a ton. The story is written in the way one would tell a story to their friend — zig zagging between plot points and timelines. There were so many twists that came about reading it this way. Elliot is the epitome of an unreliable narrator, which made the story that much more fun to read!
