I loved this book. Ive not read many mystery/ thriller books before so perhaps I need to get more into them. I loved the characters and the plot and the ending. I was feeling everything the characters were and My emotions were up and down. I loved how the book shows the reality of a loss of a family member and how it can sometimes break a family apart rather than bringing them closer together. I loved the deep feelings that Laurel was showing and how it made me feel. What happened to Ellie was destroying and shocking and left me feeling twists in my stomach. I love when a book can make me feel the emotions of the characters. I am glad poppy had her happy ending and that she wasn't left in the sidelines. Ive read many books that contain multiple perspectives but I've never read one with this many. I didn't know if i liked it or disliked it at first but now I realise it had me knowing the characters more and understanding their different opinions.
