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 🤦🏻‍♀️

The twist was great but I didn’t necessarily enjoy getting there.

Genuinely if I hadn’t been bored with nothing else to do I would’ve put this down within the first chapter. 

The story vaguely makes no sense and the plot twist is weird and poorly thought out. There is no “gotcha” moment it’s more like “why would anyone write that”. I cannot think of one redeeming factor here but you know what it was a book so. One star I guess.
