Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Was this a thriller? Sure. Was this thriller I thought I was going to get? Definitely not. Larsen took the slow burn thriller genre a bit too intensely, as, this one takes too long to burn. The pacing of this book was quite fast, (despite seemingly nothing happening) which shows promise for a thriller debut author. However, the characters were flat, and the story felt like it needed more polishing. I wanted to enjoy this more, but it just missed the mark for me. Also, the book uses the phrase “let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding” in full seriousness, and I laughed out loud.
Full review will be posted on July 9th, 2021.
