Este libro es una absoluta locura. Es tremendamente atrapante y tiene un ritmo de suspenso, acción y adrenalina que hace imposible poder parar hasta saber cómo termina. Es una historia muy rebuscada y ejecutada de manera magistral. Fantástico de principio a fin.

Kept me at the edge of my seat! The storytelling was captivating and the constant juxtapositioning between past and present really emphasizes the mystery as we only get lil bits and pieces of information at a time, making for a great build up to the climax. The plot twist was super unexpected, but also felt less thought out or connected than everything else. It seemed out of place, there was no set up for it, which makes sense for the plot twist but it was just so unexpected it took me out of immersion and burst the bubble a little bit. Still overall an awesome read!

This was just too much for me. The abuse and ending was so extreme.

This was bonkers and not entirely in a good way. It’s always interesting to find an author you like and then go back to their early efforts. Having just read Good Bad Girl, there were many similarities between the two but that one was more logical and the ending was more sensible. This was just ridiculous. It’s too bad because I think a few adjustments could’ve made this another amazing one but the end was just so absurd.

I'm such an Alice Feeney Stan but this one took me by surprise.
I wasn't expecting there to be so many hard topics, but that could be because I go into my books blind and don't really look up what i'm about to read.
I was wanting to know what was going to happen the entire time, wanting to know how she was going to twist this because if you read Alice Feeney you know that it's never obvious and I can definitely tell you that the ending was NOT what I was expecting in the slightest... and honestly I have no idea if that's in a good way or not i'm still thinking about it but i'm leaning towards yes because i'm mind blown.
I wish I could have the mind of a writer because I don't know how you could come up with a story like this but i'm not mad about it.
My eyes definitely bulged out of my head a few times while reading.
I'll forever recommend anything this author writes but just know this is tougher than some of her other ones.
