I didn't know what to expect when I picked up this book but it was really good. My first Riley Sager book and I was not disappointed. The main character is young, naive, and optimistic, but also very desperate, which explains alot of her actions. As someone who was been between jobs with no prospects and in need of money, I related to her in this aspect. I saw the villain and plot twist coming but then it twisted again, which was unexpected and actually quite nice.

Honestly thought the book was going to end with the MC's death for a second there but Sager closed the curtains nicely. But damn am I curious about what happened to Jane./spoiler>

Decent start. The anime adaptation was very faithful to the story.

Officially dropping this series. Tried to give it a fair chance but it hasn't improved.
