I probably wouldn’t have finished this book if it wasn’t for a book club. It was way too gory and vulgar and needed so many content warnings I did not get before reading it. I could see why people enjoy this book but it just wasn’t for me and this was also the first thriller I have ever read. I ended up guessing the killer because none of the other options made sense to me, even though the real killer also didn’t seem plausible.

I picked this book up because of Tik Tok. I'm currently able to read books and I want to keep this momentum up, so I've mainly been reading thrillers and mysteries to keep me engaged. I think this book will always have a special place in my heart because I started in whilst I was on holiday in the UK and then I finished it in Korea.

I liked the experience of reading this book. This book is heavily plot based. The story alternates chapters from Anna, Jack, and the killer. It keeps you on your toes, and I do think there is at least one plot twist that will make you surprised.

I would recommend this book if you like thrillers/mysteries. The characters aren't likable but it is a quick read because you want to know what happens next.

I really really thought I knew who the killer was but nope. Not even close. This book had me on my toes, from beginning to end, through every twist that kept happening.

This story is told from 3 POVs: His (Jack's), Her's, and the truth (the mysterious killer).

I reread each POV that was the killer's 3 times each to make sure my guess of the killer was probably correct. It still wasn't. Alice Feeney did an excellent job at keeping you guessing.

This book gives me weird, sex cult Heather's vibes but grown up in a mystery thriller book. I honestly think that's the best way to describe this book.
