The Night You Left by Emma Curtis

3.5 stars
This story started so good and i was intrigued to discover all the secrets and mysteries that i was hopping will unfold throughout the pages.
Unfortunately, for me, it felt flat and i was really thinking if i should give up or carry on. Because i rarely DNF a book, i picked it up again and was glad to do it because the story takes a turn after the first half part and it gets more interesting.
What i liked the most is Grace and her willingness to find out the truth and don't wait for the police investigation to complete as they seem to found a dead end. The way she tries to carry on with her life after Nick disappears, all the dangerous situations and unveiling the secrets of his childhood, her inner thoughts and her love for her daughter.

I didn't like that there are too many day by day descriptions that just drag on and it feels like being put on the paper just to fill the space instead of adding another layer to the story.
The writing was good and overall it's a book that i will recommend.


Thanks to the publisher, author and NetGalley for my copy.
