DNF @ 69%

now i did not dnf because this book wasn't good; i actually love the way tiffany d jackson writes and the audiobook of this is unsettling (in a good way). i just thought i had the emotional capacity to read this book, after heeding to the trigger warnings, but that was not the case. this book is HEAVY and TRIGGERING, especially if you are a dv survivor. i suggest only reading this book if you have the stomach and heart to endure it to the end. i wanted to see who ended up actually k!lling korey fields, so i did look it up, so i felt some award for getting through as much as i could.

again, tiffany d jackson's book deserves to be read, but please always be mindful of the trigger warnings because they are there to protect you. though i failed myself thinking i would be fine, a lot of others have enjoyed this book

Damn, Tiffany Jackson and her unwell, unbelieved Black girls. So far I am 3 for 3 with her books. They hurt and are beautiful.

WARNING! this book can be triggering for some. It’s a great read, but in the middle I stopped reading because it was triggering me. the plots are great and the ending did not feel rushed! The ending was actually extremely unexpected and this book was a thrill ride!

I did not expect to devour this book in one day! It was so different than what I expected, but I couldn’t put it down. The alternating narration, voicemails, and police reports truly kept it a mystery until the final page.

A tough read but so well done. Intense and pulls you in. It has more than the usual thriller.
