3.0

Another book I feel conflicted about, it has a very interesting plot and the concept is very unique and complex. The mystery really caught my attention and I was determined to read until the end to find out what happen. 
 
However, I was left confused about some things regarding the memories. It took me a while to understand it. I also felt some parts feels dragging especially in the middle part of the story. 
 
I really like getting to know the characters and the secret pasts each of them has. Some of them really caught me by surprise and made a good plot twist. Although, I wish there’s more depth to the side characters as well. 
 
I don’t know if this is going to be a series or remain a standalone, if it is a standalone then the ending doesn’t feel very satisfying cause it left with some unanswered questions that I wish were resolved at the end of it. 
 
Overall, it’s still a pretty good story. A dash of romance, strong friendship and unexpected twists makes this book quite enjoyable to read. 
 
⚠️ 𝐓𝐖: Death, murder, sexual assault, mention of suicide, fire injury, suicide attempt and child death. 
 
I received an advanced review copy for free through Netgalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. Huge thank you to the author and publisher!
