I could not put this book down. I loved the different perspectives from Diana and Lucy and going back & forth in time. It was set up perfectly to me and I loved the anticipation of learning why the relationship was so bad. 
The arc of Lucy and Diana’s relationship was beautiful and shocking. I had no idea that was coming. I wish we saw more from Nettie’s perspective. Great thriller!
