I got this Advanced Reader at my work. Absolutely loved this. Couldn't put it down. Megan has such a way of writing that I was entranced until the very last page. I was absolutely convinced of a few things but I'm not going to put them here because of spoilers. I was entirely wrong about how this was going to play out.

This book has solidified Megan Miranda as one of my new favourite mystery authors. This was such a slow burn with an extremely satisfying ending. I love how Miranda can dig so deep into complex female friendships.

I’ve grown up loving Megan Miranda’s writing and this was no different. She tells a story incredibly well and knows how to build suspense. Her books to me are always very plot focused, and while we do get to know the characters it mostly concentrated on the story development. For me this was good, and I didn’t see where the plot was going, but I felt like our main character considering she was a journalist was incredibly unobservant to live with someone and know nothing about her. It felt a little convenient to me. Still planning on binging the rest of her thrillers.
