This would have been a near 5 star for me but the ending?! wtf???? zero closure!

otherwise an excellent read, I devoured this in 3 days. some of the red herrings are obvious in the writing but that I can forgive. The ending I cannot.

ending  felt like too many twists that didn’t all add up or feel complete. Ending was too graphic for me. No loveable characters

This one was slow. I almost wanted to give up on it, but the end really picked up. Written and read by Ashley Flowers of Crime Junky podcast. My favorite part was the unique structure of how she revealed the story. There could be some triggering aspects, especially for parents.

This is giving Pretty Little Liars in the sense that a lot of things are going on that came out of nowhere and the ending is just... not it
