When I learned the concept of this book I was really intrigued because it seemed really fascinating. I waited months for this book on the Libby app so I when it was finally time I was so excited. Unlike most of the thrillers I’ve read, this one didn’t have me on my toes, I had no theories and there really weren’t any twists? Everything was fairly factual and I wasn’t surprised by the ending at all. I’m glad I read it but I’m slightly disappointed.

If you’re looking for a thriller that is fast paced from start to finish this isn’t for you. However, I enjoyed the plot of this book, which is certainly unique, and the exploration of human morality. 

It’s worth a read but there’s better thrillers out there.
