4.5
I enjoyed the plot, most of the characters, and (again) the short chapters.
I will say, I had my suspicions from the start that
I liked that there were twists without it being confusing or hard to follow. That’s a trap a lot of thrillers fall into, and it ends up docking stars for me when they do that.
The main critique I have is that I felt like one of the main characters pieced some things together too easily almost. You almost have to suspend disbelief about that in order to enjoy it. But I do feel like the ending kind of packages that up more nicely.
I’d recommend this to anyone who enjoys thrillers!
Note: heavy trigger warnings for everything I tagged. Especially on abuse and DV.
