So I read this in a day, I was gripped. Freida McFadden definitely knows how to write an addictive book that's for sure. I still am not fully sold on Millie as a loveable character, I felt annoyed by the way she treated Brock and led him on for him to get no resolve. That aside, I enjoyed this a lot more than the first! Once again I didn't expect the twist and loved the setting for the final third of the book, it felt very traditional thriller / horror movie-esque. I would really love these books to become movies as I think they'd translate well. I can't wait to read the third book as the preview seemed intriguing!
