I really enjoyed this thriller.
The main character was really likeable although she was really going through it. Like I really wanted things to turn out for her.
I've seen people say that this book would've worked just as well without the white guy and I agree. Like the only important plot point he matters for is whenfor a moment she thought he had played her and was working with his gf to get rid of her .

the friend being dead. I thought she was just also kidnapped. I am confused about how that happened. Like how was she murdered and left in the crawl hole or just stuck there and died without anything happening to the MC?
Also I did not see it coming that the neighbors were the ones that moved the body. I loved that.
I did not see all that bloodshed coming!
I did like the pacing as well going through the stages: the creepy part, the person falling apart with all the tension rising, and the bloody conclusion. I loved her use of real concepts into thriller form.
