Review:
This book admittedly didn’t hook me right from the beginning, it all seemed a little predictable and slightly confusing.
However, as it went on I got really drawn in and found myself struggling to put it down, it just kept developing.
There were so many twists and turns and theories, it had my head spinning!
Beth goes on such a journey to figuring out what happened that morning and I really enjoyed how it was written. You are invited into hearing Beth’s thoughts developing and her ideas. It really made me feel connected to her as a character.
The last 20% of the book was incredibly unexpected and the ending was tied up nicely, very satisfying.
