I was definitely interested and didn’t want to put the book down. There were a few loose ends that I wish were tied up at the end

like what was the deal with Cassandra blaming Meredith for her husband’s infidelity? I feel like that didn’t add anything to the plot. Also, I wish it was revealed that Marty and Shelby were having an affair, it would have made sense.

the reveal at the end was good but not crazy shocking.

This was an amazing mystery/thriller. I was hooked from the very beginning and was wondering what happened to Delilah, Shelby, and Meredith the entire time. I never saw it coming! I recommend to anyone who likes mysteries or thrillers!!

Okay so this whole review is going to be spoiler filled so be warned.

Okay so I truly enjoyed this book and the twist. But I truly do not understand what the point of carly was?? Like?? It would've been just as good without her and it seems like a pointless plot line?

Otherwise I did not see the twists coming and really enjoyed devouring this book.
