This was not the ending I expected for sure! Upon first reading the book, it did not seem like a typical thriller to be honest and I kept wondering when the “twist” was going to happen but I had to remind myself to be patient! Of course as I got deeper into it and engrossed with all the characters and storyline, stuff started to piece up with the events and make sense.
The author does a great job of explaining the events well on the island and the character’s backgrounds and possible motives. It really seemed almost like a ‘survival of the fittest’ trope but really stunned me towards the end. I recommend reading this, especially if you’re familiar with reality TV, even though you’ll start questioning how much of it is really real…
