My first Freida McFadden book. I enjoyed this book! It was gripping from the very beginning and I kept thinking about the plot twists and what they could be. Safe to say that although some of the twists were predictable, it did not take away from the enjoyment of the book.

The first 100 pages were slow and boring. I didn't care for the author's writing. The characters were irritating and it was hard for me to read the scenes when a character is bullied. However, the story is actually quite good. I was surprised by the overall ending and the small threads that were tied up. There was a gaping plot hole that left me wondering
how the charges against Natalie were dropped
. I think were a few references to the resolution but not a good enough explanation for me.

Oof. This one was just not it - Sorry Freida. The first 3/4 of the book read like a middle schooler who was trying to hit a word count wrote it. The last 1/4 was mostly typical Freida and had some unexpected turns. I didn’t enjoy either main character and found them both annoying. The ending just seemed odd to me as well.
