Maybe because I spread this out over the span of a few days there’s a few things that felt unanswered to me and a few plot holes tbh. Was I engaged? Absolutely. Was I guessing the whole time? Yup! But I just wanted a few loose ends tied up.

I enjoyed this one.. but I guess I’m completely off the rails because I guessed every twist in this book.

Kind of a shit show, but a quick read. When you guess the twist super early it’s hard to call it a thriller

Synes den var irriterende, dårlige plot twists der ikke gav mening i forhold til resten af bogen??

Typical thriller. I would recommend to fans of The Woman in the Window/The Girl on the Train

2.75 rounding up. Nothing revolutionary here. Very formulaic and predictable. There was one twist that got me a little but otherwise kinda meh. That being said it was a fast read! I wouldn’t recommend it but I also wouldn’t tell someone not to read it. Being the authors debut novel, I think it was decent and I would read her again in the future - hopeful room for improvement.
