I wanted to like this but it was't well-written enough to make up for the fact that it was pretty predictable. Plot aside, most of the characters felt underdeveloped and generic and all but a couple were pretty unlikable in a way that wasn't even interesting. I finished it because I kept thinking it would go somewhere and by the time I accepted it wasn't going to I was pretty far in. Maybe would be more enjoyable for someone who rarely reads mysteries and isn't in the mood for much of a thinker?

I feel like with this book I was looking for something more? The beginning and the end make sense together but I feel the middle is hard to connect.

Twisty thriller with a modern premise, plenty of red herrings abound.

Caution: See content warnings. The mystery was interesting to piece together but it's tough to get through if you have any connection to the content warnings listed.
