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.

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.
