OMG what an absolutely wonderful and incredible book!!!! I literally could not put this down. I DEVOURED it in one afternoon. This is the first book that has actually made me understand why people highlight and underline sentences and phrases in books. I cried through most of it and still can't stop thinking about it. What a book!!!

I originally thought the reviews talking about an unreliable narrator weren't spoilers, but now I know they definitely are (and wish I hadn't seen them before reading)! I liked the combination of podcasts, Netflix transcripts, and different perspectives to tell the story! This was a good thriller with weird characters and a unique way to tell the story!

An engaging thriller with twists until the very end!! I absolutely didn't see these twists coming, and audibly gasped at a few of them! I was really attached to these characters and couldn't figure out who to trust. It was a quick and fun read!

A thriller that hooked me quickly! I always enjoy a story told from different perspectives. Because the girls were so similar, there were times that I had trouble figuring out which story belonged to which character. The last chapter left me in SHOCK.

TW: sexual assault, child abuse

This was a great thriller! It was captivating and had me hooked from the beginning. I saw the twist coming from fairly early on, but the journey it took to get there was unexpected! The ending was truly thrilling, it's a good sign when I start reading faster just because I'm so excited to see what happens next!

3.5 rounded up to a 4 ⭐ There are SO many characters that it definitely gets hard to keep them all straight. And it took me a little bit to really understand what was happening at the ending. But I was curious what was going on throughout the book and it was an unexpected ending!

Such a creepy and hooking thriller!! The characters are so well written, I kept yelling at the main character to not do things, and absolutely felt for him when things went wrong. And the kid that terrorizes him...so creepy!! A must read thriller!

An insane number of unexpected twists and turns!! I was so curious how this book was going to turn out, and I had so much fun following along with it! The characters were slightly hateable but fun, and there was so much action going on. Exactly what I want out of a thriller!!

Second page has a super dated, offensive term, next few pages weren't any better. DNF

This wasn't much of a thriller, more just an explanation of motherhood and birthing a child. There were definitely parts that got pretty in depth, more so than I wanted. This definitely wasn't a good match for me, but could be good for others.
