All the Dangerous Things

Following up her instant New York Times bestseller, A Flicker in the Dark, Stacy Willingham delivers a totally gripping thriller about a desperate mother with a troubled past in All the Dangerous Things.
One year ago, Isabelle Drake's life changed forever: her toddler son, Mason, was taken out of his crib in the middle of the night while she and her husband were asleep in the next room. With little evidence and few leads for the police to chase, the case quickly went cold. However, Isabelle cannot rest until Mason is returned to her—literally.
Except for the occasional catnap or small blackout where she loses track of time, she hasn’t slept in a year.
Isabelle's entire existence now revolves around finding him, but she knows she can’t go on this way forever. In hopes of jarring loose a new witness or buried clue, she agrees to be interviewed by a true-crime podcaster—but his interest in Isabelle's past makes her nervous. His incessant questioning paired with her severe insomnia has brought up uncomfortable memories from her own childhood, making Isabelle start to doubt her recollection of the night of Mason’s disappearance, as well as second-guess who she can trust... including herself. But she is determined to figure out the truth no matter where it leads.

I really enjoyed the creepy atmosphere that kept you second-guessing throughout the novel. I never knew what and who to believe! I made a few guesses throughout that turned out to be true, and I like the ambiguity of the characters and the twists and turns. The addition of postpartum psychosis and the comments on the struggles of motherhood were interesting and quite realistic. I applaud the author's research on that.
The one part I had an issue with was that I've never heard of a baby monitor that keeps video footage. Usually it's just a live feed. And then to keep all the files from 18 months worth of videos - that would be an insane amount of space on a computer. That took me out of the story a bit, but in the grand scheme of things that's the only big problem I had.
I thought I knew how this story was gonna pan out...but once one secret is revealed...then another...then another...you're left in disbelief!
