Holy moly, this is my third book from Alice Feeny, and while I’m definitely noticing a theme, I am never prepared for the twists and turns she crafts. I feel  like most of her books have serious trigger warnings, so tread carefully. Despite the often heinous nature of the books, her writing is quite excellent. Her imagery is amazing and I feel like I’m in the scenes. The particular twist at the end really through me for a loop and literally disgusted me so I feel compelled to deduct a star for that, but overall excellent thriller as usual

This is my fourth Alice Feeny book and although I haven't read all of her books I have noticed that Alice really loves using past and present perspectives to relay her thriller. Nothing wrong with that, it's just something I picked up while reading.

I don't know why, but for some reason, I was really feeling her writing in this book. There are some relatable quotes in there. While the pacing was slow, for some reason that didn't bother me like it would in other thriller books. The twist was shocking (I only guessed a part of it a chapter before) and very repugnant as well. After I finished the book I was rendered speechless.

What a...strange book lol. Was it good? Sort of? Did it keep me reading and wanting to know where the hell this was going? Yes, it sure did. Very strange twists and things happening in the very last 2 chapters felt way more done for the pure shock of the twist than something that actually makes sense. But! It was still an entertaining read and kept me hooked, so it was good for that!
