This book was fantastic! It kept me interested every step of the way. I wouldn't say that it's a thriller so much, it's more about the psychology of the main character and her family, but there is still a compelling mystery at the heart of the story. The narration is fascinating and it flips everything around on you when you aren't expecting it. Even the parts you think you can predict come out much different than you expect.
