Terribly hard book to get into. I thought it might get better…should have been a DNF for me 😒
What a roller coaster! Still processing what the heck I just read, and that endingâ¦
WTF!
I did enjoy this book, it enthralls you right from the beginning. I do wish the characters were a little better developed and some details were a little far-fetched. But altogether, it was a really good read. It was an amusing book club discussion as well!
This book was nuts! The whole plot was well thought and so stressful. I could not expect the outcome!!! I felt so betrayed for the main character. I can't believe she had to live through these scenarios! Book was amazing! Highly recommend!!!
