The beginning chapters were SO tell not show; it was hard to get through. But the twist and characters were pretty good, so it was worth staying with. Will I read the next one? *shrugs* I do really like the gardener guy, so maybe if I get to see more of him.

I typically look at a list of trigger warnings and have no concerns. I went in blind and ooofff, I was uncomfy! Such an incredible book, twists and turns, I was on the edge of my seat from the start!

The beginning was pretty slow. But then everything clicked and it got much better. Still not the best thriller I’ve read but I’m intrigued enough to read the sequel.

Wow this book was so good but I wouldn’t expect anything less from my girl Freida! Each chapter left me wanting more and there were so many twists keeping me engaged. I love to hate each character in this book yet Freida’s got me empathizing with each one. The change in perspective kept the book fresh and flushed everything out. I will be reading the sequel VERY soon!
