Well...that was something. This one is boring and slow for the first 80 percent and then the ending is just absolutely batshit insane-but not in a good way. I didn't predict any of the reveals but I think that is more of a flaw in the way the story was told. I don't mind an unreliable narrator, which this had, but this was more of the characters not acting how they should've based on the reveals at the end. The writing was also really choppy and the chapters often ending very choppily. Just not a well executed novel, which leads it to be my biggest disappointment of the years so far because I really enjoyed The Woman in the Window.
