It was okay. I love the twists and turns but the ending confused me too much.

This wasn’t anything like I expected! I went in thinking twisty domestic thriller and was shocked by how dark the story got! I really enjoyed it and loved how binge-able it was. It was easily going to be a 4.5-5 star read for me until the last 10% of the book. I felt like there was way too much going on and the very end was confusing to me. That being said, the character development was great, I felt really connected to the female MC and was rooting for her throughout. Overall, it was a super fun read and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for something fast paced.

I actually really enjoyed this book! (I didn’t think I would based on my opinion of another book from this author). This was suspenseful, intriguing and definitely surprised me several times! I love a domestic psychological thriller and this one did not disappoint. I really wasn’t expecting it to get as dark as it did, but as someone who enjoys a dark, disturbing book, I was pleasantly surprised. The events that happened in this story are some of the most disturbing I’ve read and I thought the author did a great job telling the story. I was entertained the whole way through and did not want to put this down! The only reason I took off half a star was because the wrap up felt a bit rushed, like too many things were happening back to back, and the ending was a little confusing for me. I love a happy ending tied up in a neat bow, but the author didn’t give us exactly that. Overall I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes dark, twisted domestic psychological thrillers!
