Verity lives up to they hype of the mystery and tension. Even writing this I’m still a little freaked out by the concept. The almost open-ended-ness of the ending is definitely going to sit with me for a long time. However, the obsession over a man that’s only traits I can remember are being handsome and loving his children was taken a little overboard. There were many times I was rolling my eyes and even the smut felt a little much. The mystery and creepiness in the book were great- the relationships not as much. I did find the story within the story interesting.
