I have yet to be disappointed with one of Riley Sager's books! I loved the twists! This one gave me vibes from "No Exit" by Taylor Adams and "Run on Red" by Noelle W. Ihli, ONLY BETTER!

Boy was this a fun rollercoaster. I kept going back and forth with the is Josh a killer or is Charlie just a week crazy? One moment Ali was set on my answer and by the end of the chapter I was doubting myself. I liked the characters but I also was also groaning over some of Charlie's decision that just did make sense after her long thought out reasons and to do the opposite. There were a bunch of moments I did not see coming and i enjoyed that so much. I predicted something only because it seemed convenient and there wasnt a lot of pages left but oh boy did i call it and was not disappointed in this book at all! I really liked this and the all over mind mess of it!
