Okay, so, look, I'm by no means a thriller aficionado, so feel free to take all of this with a grain of salt. I'm very rarely going to guess the twist ahead of time, I'm pretty much always going to have a jaw dropping moment, and I'm generally going to fly through thrillers because of the way they're written.
ALL OF THAT BEING SAID, THOUGH - I really, really, really enjoyed this book. I loved how all of it came together, and I loved the narrative choice to go back and forth from the present to the accident (starting with one survivor's POV 7 hours afterwards and going back one hour and switching POVs until you got to the accident itself).
I was swept up in all the winding ways that everything came together, and it all seemed plausible. It is twisty, and fun, and sad, and I thought there was a very good twist at the end! I've also decided to go through Megan Miranda's backlist based on this book alone, so that's another point in this book's favor!
