Liked the book overall,

Spoiler

the plot twist was good and the fact that the narrator was unreliable was really fun for me

Read the last 100 pages in a day 'cause I couldn't put the book down. Some things were kinda rushed imo,

Spoiler

I would've loved a confrontation with Kathy and Gabriel

A slow first ~100 pages but then it picks up. I was able to predict the ending however all of the details that led to the reveal were still holding my attention. A good thriller that didn’t feel too scary to sleep.

This book was one of the best I've ever read. I did not see the plot twist that happened at the end and I think that's what makes this book so good. It's probably by far my most favorite thriller.
