A super interesting psychological thriller that had me in suspense the whole time! So many twists and turns and revelations I did not see coming up until the epilogue. I loved how we were led to strongly believe one thing before getting our whole point of view upended and learning a new side that changed everything and realizing who we though were the villains might actually be the victims and vice versa

A very popcorn thriller. The writing style didn't really appeal to me all that much, this book felt like a way to pass time for me rather than something I was fully immersed in. It felt like someone was trying to convince me of the story+characters rather than just letting it all play out. I liked the documentary segments and the pacing was fine. The ending was pretty fun tho.
