i might need to reread this knowing the ending, because some things just aren't adding up.

but i did thoroughly enjoy this book, despite the ethics & morals involved.

My opinions: I thought that this book was well written and thought out. I liked the different points of view. HOWEVER, I thought that this book was LACKING, I knew where this book was going as soon as it started to get into it. But also NATE FRUSTRATED ME SO MUCH. I saw what was coming. And I have no idea what genre you might be able to put it in. It is not a murder mystery AT ALL. It is not a thriller because it has no plot twists. And I don't know if you would be able to put it in a psychological thriller. I loved what happened to Eve at the end, but also, she went a little crazy. There should definitely be warnings ⚠️ for burying people alive.

OVERALL it was a solid read

I’m always flabbergasted at the end of a Frieda novel. This one definitely gave me the ick, so check the trigger warnings. I really can’t believe the final twist. That was…unexpected, to say the least. These books are so easy to digest, even when they’re about the most heinous topics. It’s like bad reality tv in the best way possible…you just can’t look away.

Trigger warnings: Adult/minor relationship, pedophilia, infidelity, violence.

I have yet to read a book from this author that I didn't like, and this one continued the trend. There were definitely some things about it that were cringeworthy, but considering what the book was about they weren't all that surprising. I definitely never saw the twist at the very end of the book coming and I tore through it over the course of a couple days. Looking forward to reading more of her work in the future!
