I actually liked the “let me explain my bad intentions” POV chapters because the writing was so much stronger. BUT. BUT! That last chapter just makes no sense - none!! - in light of the other POV chapters.

The final twist would have been perfectly okay if the book only stuck with Emma’s perspective. Having an omniscient third person narrator doesn’t save the POV chapters because how would Emma’s reality have those perspectives?!

Two stars because I finished it.

This book was a hot mess. The plot, had it stuck to the premise, would've been great. Instead it was an all over the place what is even happening read.


And the ending ruined it. Completely ruined it. Without that last chapter, it would've been a slightly better book.

No, just no ... This book is so bad I can't believe how bad it is.

The characters are all annoying as hell. The plot makes no sense. It's repetitive, it's repetitive, how can a 250 pages book be this repetitive? The ending just nope.

Stay away from this book it not good at all.

This author wrote a terrible Lifetime movie script and somehow stretched it into book-length. The first ending was predictable which might explain why she tossed in the Wizard of Oz-esque twist.
