Just when I thought I had this mystery figured out, BOOM! PLOT TWIST. Bravo, Jennifer Hillier. This book kept me guessing, had me feeling all of the feels through this heartbreaking, intense, and shocking story.

I really wanted for this book to be the best thriller I’ve read. But tbh it’s not. I think if I’d gone into it wanting a mystery I might have been more here for it but I was fairly underwhelmed in all honesty. It wasn’t bad, but maybe just not for me?

It was okay. The title is misleading IMO!

If you want a mystery/thriller that is going to make you feel like you have your own red yarn to connect the dots, then this is that.

TW: rape, abuse, and death

The author makes you feel so deeply for the main character, Joelle err Paris. Half the time you’re also questioning the role she plays in the death of those around her. Paris’ resilience after all the childhood trauma is astounding. You’re on the edge of your seat until the very end trying to figure out her intentions and who murdered her loved ones/demons.

This author hasn’t let me down with a good book yet!

Had me intrigued to the end. It was a BOM book so had to read it! I recommend it!
