The book was good, and I liked Dee, Burke and Sarah.

The plot was well-constructed and it definitely delivered on the premise. I liked the inclusion of transcripts of the podcast episodes, and also the subplot of Nia and Vanessa. 
In general though did I hope for a better ending, or that it would’ve been better explained what had happened. For example, I would’ve loved to hear more thoroughly what happened to both missing girls in the end.

Also, I would’ve loved for a happy ending for the Chevy we never got.
