I wanted a fun mystery/thriller, and that’s not at all what I got. If you read this, go in prepared for it to be way more serious than that. It’s way more of a heavy drama than anything fun like I wanted.

The beginning was tough to get through because some lines are bit jarring (“oscillating eyes” will haunt me for quite some time) but the mystery’s payoff was well worth the read! So while this isn’t my favorite style of writing, it’s still an interesting and difficult story. Not exactly re-readable since the mystery was the main draw for me, but I’m glad to have read it.

I really enjoyed this one! It was a captivating thriller and I didn’t know who to trust.  The ending felt a little abrupt, but other than that, this was a great read!
