nickymaund's review against another edition

On Halloween, college student Chelsea wakes up in her bathroom covered in blood and stab wounds, the lone survivor of a frenzied attack by her would-be boyfriend (Ethan), who has now disappeared. Fast forward 4 or 5 years to present day and Chelsea has survived the trauma of that night, she still has the scars (both physically and psychologically), but she’s got her own place to live, a job, a good friend, and hardly any memories from that night. She has rebuilt her life. And then things begin to unravel when she bumps into Ethan’s best friend and someone starts leaving her notes. And then the A’s of yet unsolved investigation into that fateful night is reopened.

I have to say this started of really promising. I was quickly drawn into Chelsea’s story and it had me trying to work out what he big reveal would be. However, at a short read, it wasn’t very tense. It didn’t really pull me in much further. And the big reveal didn’t really feel well thought out (when compared to the rest of the story).

Wow!

This book was sooo good. It kept my attention and there was never a dull moment! I loved how it kept to the story and never gave to much background to bore me. This is definitely a must read!

Whaaaaat?! Not the twist I was expecting, but the twist I deserved. I definitely thought Boyd was sus the entire time, but clearly not for the reasons I was thinking. “YOU MADE ME.” A double entendre indeed. I tore through this so quickly, a definite must read.

A Great Read. This is a true psychological thriller. It was a little slow in the middle but somehow it all fit. It made sense. The more I read, the more intrigued and overly anxious I was to get to the end. And the last twist was satisfying!! Would totally recommend this book.
