Needed an epilogue

The book moved along easily and kept my attention. There were a few plot holes, but I enjoyed it till the end. The end would have been fine if there had been an epilogue wrapping up what happened to the characters, but there’s not and the book feels somewhat unfinished to me.

Awesome novel!!

It’s hard to believe that Finley is a “debut novelist”! From the interesting plot, to her well-developed characters and suspenseful twists, once I began listening, I couldn’t turn it off! I can’t wait to read her next novel!

Weak main character

The main character switches between constant whimpering and crying then swings into super hero. Not a believable character. I actually intensely disliked her in some chapters. Otherwise I enjoyed the story.

Boring story- great reader

Lost interest. Completely unbelievable. Do not recommend. Nothing new or exciting. Reader did a good job.

Couldn’t wait for it to end

Plot constantly changing. It was miserable listening to this . I was glad when it was finished

Good story, could have been shorter

Story was good, but there was far too much internal freaking out/internal monologue about nothing important by the main character. Could have been shorter and more to the point.
