This wasn’t what I expected at all. After seeing the book posted everywhere, I assumed it was going to be one that blew me away. It was OK, but I probably wouldn’t re-read or recommend.

I almost gave up on this one, thus the lower rating. It felt predictable and the twists didn’t feel all that shocking.. but Ruth Ware delivered that audible gasp I was impatiently waiting for at almost 90% in.
Also; LOVED the narrator’s voice on LibroFM. So soothing.
