This book is one of my favorite books of all time. It was gut wrenching, sad, visceral and heartbreaking. It will stick with me for a long time. It’s not often a book will make me openly cry. I felt the main character and her emotions as the story unfolded through her lens. The writing is phenomenal. Chevy Stevens has now become one of my favorite authors

4.0

A very solid thriller! This was definitely an easy read and I devoured it in less than 24 hours. I think the format of the story, as us listening in on her therapy sessions, was a really interesting and good storytelling device. 

I think ultimately I wished that the MC had like at least one solid person she could trust. I thought the romance-ish plot line was unnecessary but I didn’t hate it or anything.

I’m not even mad that her mom had something to due with the kidnapping, or that she never understood exactly how fucked up her actions were, because her mom sucked from the jump. I’m disappointed in her friend Cristina and her then-boyfriend Luke. I cannot believe Luke’s first instinct from hearing of the moms involvement is “your poor mother.” HUH???? Does no one understand the trauma MC has been through?! And I thought it was so weird that Cristina didn’t encourage MC enrolling in art school and pursuing her dream. I don’t think anyone would view that decision as running away. The animosity was so unfounded and confusing for me.

Overall, a very solid 4-star thriller and I do recommend it.

I blew through this book in two days. I couldn't put it down. The parts in the cabin made me feel so gross and uncomfortable which is saying something because I read a lot of disturbing books. I was so sad for Annie and what she went through. There is a big twist at the end and I honestly couldn't believe it. That is probably the last outcome I was expecting. It just made what happened so much worse.
