This was my first Freida McFadden book and now I get it. I get the hype. I stayed up until 3AM just to finish this book. Now, I’ve never been good at figuring out twisted, but I will say I did catch on to a few things here and there. I also feel like I only caught onto them RIGHT before the main character did, so maybe I was just really invested. Anyway, I enjoyed this. It was a fast read (mostly because I couldn’t put it down) and the ending got me. Highly recommend.

I enjoyed the fact that the author made me distrust every single character that I’m still not entirely sure I even believe the ending. Great book.
