This author is rapidly becoming one of my favorites! I really enjoy the way that the story unfolds and how fast paced it is!
This one is short and to the point. It’s so fast paced I couldn’t believe it. It felt like it was over so fast but then there was so much packed into it that it was just fine!
I received an audio copy through NetGalley and the narrator nailed it. There was some weird “sound effects” I guess at the end that I wasn’t sold on but I can’t complain. The suspense was clear, the pacing was great - but I do wish that there had been something to make the dual timelines a bit more clear. On audio it’s easy to forget where you’re at and it’s difficult to figure it out sometimes.
I really enjoyed this though - 4.5⭐️
