Wtf did I read?? Cole is a psychopathic serial killer with no backstory and weird attachment issues. How did I get 30% through the book and there hadn’t been an interaction between Cole and Mara. Mara is just dumb. I wish I didn’t buy this book based on the cover because the cover is stunning but the book and writing is so bad!!

Ew. This reads like a YA at points, not for its content, but for the way the story was delivered/written. And then the author felt the need to throw in big words every few pages that no normal person would ever use in their vocabulary. It just didn't flow. The non consensual scenes had me cringing and wanting to skip to the end. This was a struggle which is sad. The premise had potential to be good and certain moments glimmered the slightest with some hope for saving. But everything feels extremely flat and I'm upset that I wasted money on such a pretty book with terrible writing.

“I hate being wrong.
 I hate it all the more for how rarely it happens.
 My anger flares at the girl.
 This is her fault. Her fault for defying the fate rushing toward her” 
 important trigger warnings: 
-murder 
-detailed murder 
-abduction 
-sexual assault 
-sexual harassment 
-neglectful parents 
-abuse (from parents) 
-STALKING!!!! (that’s a big ass part of the book)
-invasion of privacy(also a big part of the story) 
-trauma and nobody is going to therapy
