book number 9!!! and I find this book the hardest one to rate so far. 
coming off two five stars in a row I had high hopes for this book definitely because I liked Megan Lally's other book that's not my name. am I met with all the expectation I had? no not really but did I like it? yes I did. so lets get stared with my review

like I said I really liked the plot, and my favorite thing of the book is the pacing. is so additive to read you can read this book in one sitting. I liked the revenge story in it and I did not read a book before with that (if you do not count my fantasy reads) but oh by the characters. don't know where to start. because the characters are not likable not at all. but that is the intention of this story, did it put me off yes. did it influence my rating also yes. but you need to be prepared to not like them and keep continuing the story because it is worth it. there was one character that I did like but spoiler  in the end I still had a couple of question and unanswered answers like [is the police officer okay and how did the kids get away with hitting her overall how did they get away with it. I get that Brooke did something bad and she needs to be punished for that but they deserve to be punished too (at the end I really liked this book and will pick up the next book Megan Lally writes.
