This book was slow with virtually no payoff. It was predictable and boring. I wouldn’t even call this a slow burn. More like a slow disappointment.

Weird book. The ending fell kind of flat, but I didn't anticipate it, so... I suppose it was very suspenseful.

It’s hard for me to rate this book. I enjoyed the mystery for the most part, although it did linger a bit too long. I did guess most of the “plot twist.” I’m not an exceptional guesser but the hints throughout the book made it fairly obvious.

That said, upon reflection there are still major plot holes in the book. Like how do characters fall in love with each other in a few days?! So many other unexplained events. The ending didn’t tie up all the loose ends. As a result it was not particularly satisfying and felt a bit rushed.

It was a quick read and kept me entertained so it gets a 3 from me.

This is the third audiobook I’ve ever listened to all the way through and I liked the narrators regular voices. BUT when each narrator tried to imitate voices of other characters it was very offputting. I wish they stuck with their normal voices.
