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.

This book is my first by this author and im afraid to read another one. This book made me cringe soooo many times while reading it. I dont know if i will ever look at food, rhe same way again. I seriously was hoping this book would be good. It had sooo much potential but it fell flat for me. The ending should have been sprinkled throughout the book. Also, Grace was so disgusting at the end. Why did you need to be like that??? Im giving this book 3 stars. It literally felt like a creepy cringy romance for the first 250 pages. #jenevarose #dissappointment #somuchpotential

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.

I feel bad for rating this book so low but it just really wasn't for me. I didn't buy how fast the relationship between Grace and the dude formed, how she was instantly like so invested in his personal life. It just wasn't it for me. It felt very slow until the last forth of the book. Wasn't bad enough for me to stop listening but very very meh.

Maybe the book would have been better. I almost didn’t make it through this because the male narrator was just so awful. The twists at the end saved it from a 1 star.
