I just have to say wow at how dark and different this story was! I had an idea about that just from the synopsis, but then things took an even darker turn a little before three-quarters of the way through. Something that while I’d been rooting for Delilah made me feel a little differently about her. I can’t really say what that was, because I don’t want to ruin the surprise for you when you read it. Yeah, it made me not as sure about her as I had been, but still, it added a lot to the story. It really added that extra something that made this a 5 star read in my mind because it was a whole other layer that made what had seemed a clear cut story of good and bad become maybe a bit more.

The obsession bit with Logan was definitely very creepy and well done. From the very beginning we were left wondering exactly what had happened with the other girl that he mentioned a lot. Not only that, between the revelation I mentioned above and other hints and clues dropped like breadcrumbs throughout the story by the author, my mind was racing with all the possibilities of just how much of an unreliable narrator he was even more than it seemed.

This was an amazing story by a debut author, and I am definitely interested in reading more in the future! Highly recommend this one for all the twists and turns and even for that unsettling darkness it brings.
