All in all a really interesting concept. I had a good time reading it, and I think the twist was pretty well done.

The sexual violence wasn’t gratuitous or overdone by any means, but it might be a book to avoid if you’re sensitive to it.

Might be harsher on this book that others she’s had written because I enjoyed them so much. I enjoyed this one! The twists were almost expected but I was also truly surprised at times. She does a great job with the interiority of the people involved. Worth a listen!

5.0

I devoured the book. It was incredible. It consisted of short, exciting chapters that made you want to keep reading. The story takes place in several places at the same time, so some chapters are written from a different perspective than others. In addition, there is an important story in the past which is also told in several chapters. Normally it bothers me when so much happens at the same time in a book and there is a jump in time, but in this book by Lisa Jewell it didn't bother me at all. The book is very mysterious from the beginning and I couldn't stop reading.

This book was a page-turner. It had me on my toes. I tried to put my detective hat on while I was reading and my assumption about the outcome was partly correct. I actually liked the character development. It was hard for me to connect with Lily while reading; however, I think that was a natural feeling with her character as a whole. I liked the plot and the development. Overall, this was a great quick read. I recommend this for anyone who just wants something quick to read and is ready to try and solve a case.
