What do I say about this book without spoiling it?
The first 80% is incredible. It's a true novel of suspense with slow reveals as it follows Ally trying to rediscover her lost memories. But then it's like The novel switched authors and the last 20% is a harried and garbled end. It was so unsatisfying that it made me feel like it was a true waste of time.
Every nugget left by the author seemed like it was setting up for a completely different ending. Its hard for me to not reflect and think that the endings I thought the plot was headed towards would have been a thousand times better. I don't understand why the author chose to make it the person she did. There were so many better options and it just fell flat with that end.

While the ending was certainly a twist, I felt that the lead up did not follow through as expected.
