This one was rough. The story was engaging and I wanted to keep reading; while at the same time I never wanted to pick it up again. The violence was too much for me and there are some images that will haunt me for a long while. I would have enjoyed this book more if the focus had been more on the mystery aspect, and less on the SA descriptions.

Audiobook. This is my second from this author and I think she's my new favorite. The writing is so beautiful and the plot leaves you guessing but not handed to you or left with holes. Major major trigger warnings though, this is not for the faint at heart. Could see this being a very good movie!

This book was SO GRAPHIC!! I read reviews and heard all about it on BookTok but nothing prepared me for the level of detailed torture and gross acts. PLEASE read triggers before reading this book. It had good twists and the ending was great. Just way more intense than I anticipated, and I watch a lot of true crime….

Fiction / Thriller / Mystery

I HATED this book!!. This will be on my "BOOKS I WISH I DID NOT READ" list!!

The blub is not enough for readers going into this book! There should be a warning! Seeing psychological thriller does not make me think of SNUFF and torture porn. I was so repetitive and at times I had to skim-read, I couldn't take the details. I wanted to DNF and at 281 pages in I thought about it and probably should have. Yet part of me wanted to know the ending, I am not sure it was worth it.
