So gripping, I couldn’t put it down!
I’ve never really read thrillers before, but this, I really enjoyed. It was so well written that I was constantly shocked and surprised at the twists and the turns in the story. Some moments, I was met with genuine horror which had me questioning the humanity of Dean’s characters.
The plot never faltered. My eyes were glued to the pages, eager to find out what happened next. It took me a while to get hooked and when the premise of the book was revealed early on, I was very skeptical at first. However, the pace was excellent and the content was fascinating from a psychological point of view.
Thoroughly enjoyed this book! There were a few cringe moments and parts of the story I found difficult to believe, so that is why I’m only rating it 4 stars.
