I finished this in one day. I appreciate a read that has me turning the pages, but part of me feels like I’ve seen the lost in the woods trope so much. This wasn’t very high on my TBR, but Frieda did not disappoint. I decided to read it now because I’m seeing it all over bookstagram. I would definitely recommend it to someone looking for an evening read!

This was one of her better ones. I was guessing who it might’ve been until the reveal. And the epilogue was so right! A tightly written suspense novel. Could be a good movie someday. Found the fact about mosquitos and blood type interesting.

I really enjoyed this book. It was fast paced and I finished in a day. I liked the main narrator as the story unfolded. It was tense and left me on the edge of my seat.
