I read “too old for this” and was looking forward to another book of Samantha. Downing. This book was disappointing from the first few pages. I kept waiting for excitement, never happened. Unlikable characters, ridiculous plot.
This is a real page turner, I like that the chapters aren’t ridiculously long which does help to keep turning the pages ‘just one more quick one!’. The story was dark and captivating and the end ramps up to the point you have no idea how it’s going to resolve itself. A couple of moments where you go ‘ah yes’ and my husband even laughed at me as I made an audible noise at one point! Would recommend
A very good read but wraps up very quickly.
Loved it! I was hooked from the very beginning. I would have given this book 4.5 stars instead of 4 (why is that not an option on this app??) - one small reason I didn’t give it 5 stars: I had figured out one of the plot twists pretty early on (though the other twists and turns had me intrigued until the end).
Love that this is set in Seminole County Florida, it makes for creepy fun. Definitely one of those books that makes you root for toxic characters, toxic relationships, and such. If you don't mind letting your mind sway that way, then I highly recommend this book!
