dark mysterious sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character

4.0

Such a dark disturbing book. A few parts a skipped past due to the details of harm written about. I wasn’t expecting any of the plots twists (but also was just going with the flow with 0 expectations with this book).

This thriller has a legit supervillain. Not morally grey, pure evil. So if you want someone to root against you will get it.

I put this book down for months around chapter seven, but once I picked it back up I was hooked. Although it was a bit predictable, there were definitely twists and points caught me off guard. Picked up two more books by the author in hopes they’re similar!
