I enjoyed this book because it gave me what I needed, a mindless, page-turning popcorn thriller. I liked the premise and I liked having an unlikeable, and unreliable, narrator. The way the characters spoke to each other, however, felt more like an over the top telenovela than serious thriller. Sometimes you want steak. Sometimes you want a McDonald's burger. This was a McDonald's burger. Proceed accordingly.
