At first I was really into the novel, but I found the ending really disturbing and gross. I feel like there were way better twists that could have explained what had happened.

dark sad

3.0

Not sure if I can say I liked it.
To be honest, most of the book is actually excellent and suspenseful. When I was at 70% of it I thought it must be a five stars read.
But when the truth of the mystery is revealed, GOD SAVE ME! It's simply disgustingly perverted that I almost vomit.
Now, I really need a good Rom-Com to recover from this 🥲

Holy moly, this is my third book from Alice Feeny, and while I’m definitely noticing a theme, I am never prepared for the twists and turns she crafts. I feel  like most of her books have serious trigger warnings, so tread carefully. Despite the often heinous nature of the books, her writing is quite excellent. Her imagery is amazing and I feel like I’m in the scenes. The particular twist at the end really through me for a loop and literally disgusted me so I feel compelled to deduct a star for that, but overall excellent thriller as usual

Book was almost decent until that disgusting twist at the end.. it made the whole story far fetched as well.
