Don’t have any detailed thoughts about this one, I enjoyed reading it!  It kept me guessing which I was pleasantly surprised by!

The last third of this book had me hooked. Couldn’t put it down by parts three and four. 

For some reason, I didn’t feel hooked during the first half of the book. I’m not sure why. It could be just struggling to find time to read, but I also think the multiple characters and different viewpoints made it hard for me to follow. I could have used a little character-family-tree!

I would like to re-read the book, because maybe I’ll have more fun picking out any clues set forth in the beginning!

Even with figuring out "who dun it," I still raced through this thriller.  I tried listening to this on audio, but with characters named Jenna and Joey, I couldn't follow it.  It was much easier to read in print.
