There’s not a ton of character development here, there’s not a ton of in depth analytical musings on life, etc … but it’s a super quick read that you’re not going to want to put down to see how it all comes together in the end!

I suspected one twist fairly early, but another totally surprised me in such a good way! I really enjoyed the pacing and how all the clues were left out, and I did think the author did a terrifying job of showing how insidious some relationships can be. (Check those Content Warnings, for sure)

As of April 2023 this one is available on Kindle Unlimited and I would recommend it, especially if you’re looking for a quick weekend read or something to get you back on track for a reading goal!
