SUCH a good book. ik some people don’t like it, but i personally enjoyed it a lot. finished it in three days. it had me on the edge of my seat. i love how Emma, the mc, isn’t protrayed as a helpless little girl. she’s strong and has attitude, but also is relatable and realistic. i also love cooper and bell. i really love how different the characters are. the gutmunsson twins are suuuper interesting characters. i enjoyed reading scenes with them. this is a dark book, with descriptions of awful murder scenes and trauma. so if you’re easily shaken, maybe pick up a different book.

Found this to be like a teenager self insert in a criminal minds episode. While it’s not the best book I’ve ever read, I did enjoy reading it, not as much in the beginning but it grew on me towards the end.
