NOW THIS IS HOW A THRILLER SHOULD BE WRITTEN! Had me on the edge of my seat, I finished it in five fucking days.
What made me feel this was a good developed thriller? Honestly, I don't fucking know. All I know is that the reading experiencing was tense. That's all I can recall about it. What made it so good was the unpredictability of the events. I was questioning everything and everyone and when the chapters came in I would think: Here we go again, making it to obvious I would get bored from this point forward, for my mind to be irritated with the question: then what is next? Been confused and lost about every single character was a good, GOOD, thing, because I didn't knew where the book was heading. Kimberly Belle really just hooked me up from the beginning, with all tension about the main characters been rich, the husband been famous, been stalked, like, I could not have a break like the characters in the book. I don't know if I missed obvious details, but I got sucked into the tension of the situation in the book, like, I didn't care about the mask, all I wanted to know was the why, the where, the who, and the what.
I expected the norm of it was the husband's idea or the wife's scheme, there was something beyond that, and that plot was just perfect.
Honestly (and finally) a unique thriller and I'm just going to stay quiet about because the issue here was just perfect.
