I enjoyed this one quite a bit and devoured it all almost entirely within one day. My main complaint is that I don't think we needed QUITE so many twists and turns — but overall, I was satisfied with the way all the pieces came together.

If you’re looking for a summer thriller, you’ve found it!

B̷R̷I̷N̷G̷ ✨ 𝗕𝗢𝗥𝗥𝗢𝗪 ✨ B̷Y̷P̷A̷S̷S̷

One of my favorite things about reading thrillers is how much a 3 star “liked it” book is a perfectly lovely and fun and wonderful way to pass the time, especially during the summer.

I love thrillers with short chapters and multiple POVs where everyone has something to hide, and this fit the bill so well! I especially love when I’m genuinely surprised by things and this one got me a couple times so honestly it’s a win!
