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.

There were some plot threads though that did feel unnecessary and like they didn’t go anywhere. I also wasn’t in love with the ending. It felt unfinished. I was surprised when I saw how little was left on the second last chapter.
Overall still a great book though.
