This book was such a slow burn and didn't even have that good of a payoff. Basically nothing happens other than relationship drama until the last 2 hours of the book. There were some slightly creepy moments I guess if you squint but honestly I felt this wasn't creepy at all and barely qualified as a thriller until the last hour of the audiobook but even then…
The writing was good and it was interesting enough to listen to during work but if I had read the physical book I probably would have definitely dnf it.
Also the whole twist of the story is built on a giant plot hole so…. yikes.
