3.0

It was a good story, I only gave it 3 stars because i‘m just not a huge fan of thriller so it wasn’t my genre to begin with!! BUTTTTT I read this book because it was recommended so often and it killed me!! I had to lay it down a couple of times because it was too brutal for me to continue reading, as I was also in a „mental state“ where i was looking for a cute, romantic book and got completely fooled by the recommendations!! the story literally scared me so much!! But other than that, it was well written and really hooked me!! Still: if you get spooked easily and want to read something rather lighthearted I would NOT recommend this book!!

It’s a really good read but i rated it 4 stars because i had such high expectations since everyone’s saying how this book has a huge plot twist and how it makes them feel nauseous when reading and stuff. Didn’t really feel nauseous OR that surprised at the end, i expected it.

the ending made the book better, that's the only reason this book gets 4 stars, otherwise it would've been a 2?
