4.0

This is my fourth Alice Feeny book and although I haven't read all of her books I have noticed that Alice really loves using past and present perspectives to relay her thriller. Nothing wrong with that, it's just something I picked up while reading.

I don't know why, but for some reason, I was really feeling her writing in this book. There are some relatable quotes in there. While the pacing was slow, for some reason that didn't bother me like it would in other thriller books. The twist was shocking (I only guessed a part of it a chapter before) and very repugnant as well. After I finished the book I was rendered speechless.
