I had been seeing rabbit hole everywhere so when I got approved for the audio arc I was so excited. The effortlessness of the storytelling made this one a quick read. Unfortunately, it also made it feel a bit lackluster. There were a lot of moving parts to this story that I felt went nowhere and were only there to prove the shock factor. I understand you’re not yourself when you’re processing grief and trauma and the main character Teddy is constantly processing both. Her father killed himself a decade after her sister goes missing. The books title comes from a childhood memory Teddy has of her and her missing sister Angie looking down rabbit holes, it has a double meaning as Teddy investigates further into Angie’s disappearance. As Teddy unravels deeper in the investigation she loses all aspects of herself and begins dating an older man her parents once employed while she was a child. She makes many other questionable decisions and is led into some toxic thinking and behavior. I don’t feel like this book was described properly. I don’t feel like it showed any of the dark side of true crime aside from reddit conspiracies? I think a lot of the plot devices used here were a bit gratuitous especially the role the families dog wolfie plays in all of this. As well as other animals depictions from the very beginning of this story. The ending felt unfinished and rushed at the same time. I wanted so much more from this story and these characters. Nothing felt resolved and though that’s usually life in a missing persons case, it makes for a disconnected read. Overall this book just wasn’t for me in the way I wanted it to be. 

This book is fillllled with content warnings so if it sounds interesting to you please look those up before diving in. 

Thank you Netgalley and RB Media for this arc in exchange for an honest review.
