4.0

Honestly the only reason this book didn’t get 5 stars is I find it hard to read (or in this case hear) about people’s traumas, and also sometimes it felt like a textbook. But an excellent twist that I did not see coming!!!!

2.0

Well this was traumatizing, and the writing was boring. Very clinical and not suspenseful for a thriller. The twist was meh, and the ending was… something! If anyone reads this, you MUST check TWs.
