Nothing happens till like the last half an hour of the audiobook. It reads as a insta romance up in till this point rather than a thriller.

Joe Golberg from “You” meets the female Dexter. But neither MC’s are that interesting. Lots of plot holes in this story. I didn’t feel connected to any of the characters & I basically rolled my eyes every time Calvin talked. What an obsessive cry baby loser, major “lil d energy”

 All that suspense build up just for everything to unravel in the last few chapters & not everything got an explanation..

Why wouldn’t Grace a woman! save Bri from being tied up in a Cabin! She just released her & kicked her then drove away!? The only explanation to Grace being a serial killer is that it’s in her “nature” but I still would’ve liked more of an explanation as to why she chooses to kill AirBnB hosts. Why did she choose Calvin ? & wtf why was Grace’s “work” & “laptop” mentioned multiple times in the beginning just for that detail to be forgotten about 🤦🏻‍♀️

2 stars is because I am excited to have listened through this book do quickly as it truly was captivating and I had no idea what would happen. I would say “I never saw that coming” but that is usually associated with an OMG shocker- that usually makes me look positive upon a book. For this book, my reactions were “uh.”, “what is going on?”, “this makes absolutely no sense” and “nope”. Also the misogyny is through the roof but I think I now see why that was done, but it sure did not help.
