Reviews with content warning for Death - The Inmate

I was heavy-breathing through this book from about 50% to the end. It’s everything you’d expect from Frieda McFadden- the good and the bad- and it DELIVERED. I read it in two sittings of 50% each.
I made a grave mistake reading this at night, because my heart is beating fast and I’m probably not getting any sleep.

I didn’t see the twist in this one, and it had me screaming. There isn’t much I can praise or criticize without giving stuff away.

I can say this ended up being a five star read for me DESPITE the FMC. She is almost willfully naive.

Frieda McFadden has me hooked.

3.0

Medium-fast paced book. This book was semi-predictable. The beginning and ending of the book were good. The middle was meh. There was a lot of back and forth, between two of the characters, Tim and Shane. “Tim’s a bad person.” “No, Shane’s a bad person.” This was the part that made it predictable, because it alluded that one of these characters possibly was guilty of something, rather than letting the suspense naturally build a little bit more. It got old after a while. The ending had a plot twist that I wasn’t predicting.
