I was on edge the whole time reading this book, it definitely did its job at being a thriller! I enjoyed the way that this book questions the ethics surrounding true crime and thought it was a very interesting storyline. However, I found all of the characters completely unlikeable - although I don’t know if that was the point? Roach made me want to crawl out of my skin and she also said “normie” 28 times.
