I was dubious when I started reading the book. Part 1 wasn't great. I didn't like being in Millie's point of view, as she wasn't very smart and a bit self-absorbed about her feelings. And it was unnecessarily long compared to the rest of the book. But I really liked part 2.

I enjoyed getting Nina's point of view and understanding where she was coming from.

. And part 3 was great conclusion. It remains to be seen what the next books will bring.

Quick thriller that you can knock out in an afternoon. A bit heavy on the tropes and easy to see where it's going, but a fun ride to get there.

Frieda McFadden really likes to play into the "nice guy- dark secrets" trope.
