Great book

Great story with lots of twists and turns and characters that you know you can’t fully trust.

Wow

Okay I must be honest at first it was difficult to get into this storyline, it kept jumping all over and usually when that happens I can skip a few chapters and not miss a beat of the story. Babbyyy don’t give up on this book because once the twist and turns started to happen it didn’t stop until the end. I do think many parts seem to be retold and was unnecessary, but it was worth it to see the end product. Definitely recommend as a book club book of the month.

Another winner!

Fasten your emotional seat belt. A riveting story from start to finish. I can hardly wait for the next book by this author.

Loved it

Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. It kept me guessing right down to almost the end.

Now, THIS is a gripping psychological mystery

Wow!! Kept me guessing start to finish! The full last two hours where a whirlwind. I couldn’t stop listening.

Little slow in parts to start but overall REALLY good book.

Katie Villa is my absolute favorite narrator. Her voice is lovely to listen to and she just brings every book to life!

I saw a few reviews which said it was a confusing listen because of the character POV changing without directly at stating it at the start of the chapter but, if you’re paying attention it’s very clear.

It says a lot that I listened two the whole thing. I dislike stories that involve cancer and sometimes eating disorders are rough for me, but I kept listening because it somehow worked. I think because it’s a solid mystery and not a sentimental tear jerking. But, if you’re triggered by eating disorders,  skip it.

Twisty Turny

Good twisty turny fun. Great narration. It kept me guessing & I admit I was wrong a couple of times.

Great story and good twist. worth listening to it

Great story and good twist. Worth listening to it. Hard to find books lately that are not predictable after the first 10 mins.

The story that would never end.

I feel like this book had potential. There were some good parts and interesting ideas, but it went on and on, unnecessarily.

Between that and the fact that I had pretty much figured out who the “bad guy” was made the many twists needless and exhausting.

Couldn't Stop listening!!!!

Loved it!! Great story with a even better narration!!! I would highly recommend this book!!

Engaging the Entire Time!

Book was engaging and gripping the entire time. Several times I thought I knew where the author was going but each time she proved me wrong by adding little twists and turns throughout the book. The author did a great job of making the characters come alive and creating a connection with them to further drag you in.

Highly recommend this book! I am going to check out more books by this author to see if they are all just as good!
