Was going to give 3 but it was bumped up because I genuinely didn’t expect the twist, but at the same time it didn’t SHOCK me. Sarah gives me big Amy dunne vibes, just not as well written. Girlboss gatekeep gaslight ✌🏼
Most of it was boring repetitive and predictable, don’t see what all the fuss was about. Idk why they got married in the first place.

I just….. wow. I really didn’t see that coming. and I DEFINITELY didn’t see the second hidden little jab coming either. This was an emotional rollercoaster of a book but it kept me on my toes!!

Oh boy. I did not see that coming. One of the better thriller/murder mysteries I’ve read in awhile. The twist was WILD although in hindsight I shouldn’t have been too shocked.
