This genuinely may be the worst book I’ve ever read. The writing, ending, character development, and story are just bad. It was the kind of bad that may be cringe and sigh with disappointment more than once. I unfortunately cannot recommend this book to anyone I want a cordial relationship with.

I really liked this one! It was fast and entertaining. I kept updating my husband on my new theories as to whodunnit, so I was quite invested. However, after the ending was finally revealed, I found that several thoughts and actions characters took earlier in the story didn't align, and it seemed like the inner monologue was meant to keep the reader guessing instead of being the character's actual suspicions. Still a fun read, though! 7.5/10

I have very mixed feelings about this book, at first, I was enjoying the book but as it went on it become very all over the place and things didn't add up. For example

when they get the interview with Kelly's stalker Jesse when he mentions seeing her with a cop the cop explains it away as oh it's her husband, he's a cop but in my head if he's a stalker he would know if he was her husband or not just another cop and they don't look into it anymore cop or anyone else in the investigation and that annoyed the hell out of me. Obviously, I know it was done on kind on purpose since they didn't want him to get off anyways but little things like this annoying throughout the book.

The book just turned into a shit storm at the end, and it wasn't a great one it just more made me pissed more than anything and felt like a waste of time.

I was surprised how much I enjoyed this. Even though it was extremely predictable (like I predicted all the big twists

minus the one where she actually worked with Bobby to do it; didn't see that one coming; and they got married

) but I was still entertained. I read it in one day. I liked Sarah's POVs. Adam's on the other hand annoyed me so much especially in the beginning. He was just acting like an idiot the whole time. Although the book wasn't masterpiece by any means it did what it had to do and was really entertaining for me. If you're going to read it I defintely recommend the audiobook.

Police procedures weren't accurate, but this is a novel... Nothing has to be spot on. I found it to be entertaining and couldn't put it down.
