dark mysterious tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix

4.5

definitely a page turner & worth the hype imo

I’ve seen lots of people saying to listen to the audiobook & I didn’t do that but I can imagine that’s even better than reading it

(I barely remember what happened in friends don’t lie but I felt like this book reminded me of that one?)

What a wild ride! I don’t want to ruin anything, but you honestly spend the entire time trying to figure out who is the actual bad guy. Told from 2 perspectives and non-linearly, so pieces of the story are doled out in a very particular order and way that leave you making prediction after prediction and still guessing what’s true right up until the end!

Edited it from 4.75 stars to 5 because I can’t stop thinking about this book and I recommended it to a bunch of people!
