Incredible book. Very atmospheric, as I felt I was right there. Had just enough mystery to keep you wanting more like the perfect documentary. Loved all of the different point of views. The audiobook had them come to life!!

Calvin was so cringey. The plot was fast and easily digestible, but nothing special. Pretty predictable with some fun sprinkled right at the end.

This book is bananas in the best way. It’s so out of left field, but written so wonderfully that it feels so real. The characters are fleshed out perfectly. It’s twisty with twists that actually make sense. Loved it!!

Not good. Nothing going on in the beginning and then way too much going on at the end. Felt very very forced. I’m surprised I forced myself to get through it. The writing was choppy and had to go back to re-read parts that were breezed through. Other parts were so dragged out. Don’t bother!

This book was A LOT. But in a good way!! Lots of different little plots that kept it living very fast. A bit predictable, but a few twists that got me!

Great basic thriller. Writing kept you very engaged. It was pretty predictable, but still worth the read!
