I can’t believe this trilogy is done 😫

A great ending to the trilogy.

I need to think on my rating (4.5 vs 5) for a bit but either way - READ THIS TRILOGY. 

Xiala is that girl 👏🏻

If I read the last time Compton anytime soon, it will be too soon. I should’ve restarted the book and started a “how many times will the characters say the name Compton?” count. 

I’m all for vain and unlikeable characters in thrillers, but give them some kind of personality besides “not the girl next door” and “Rich previously married man”.

Well an improvement from the last two Ruth Ware releases, but I’m definitely glad I got it from the library and didn’t purchase it. 

A good reality show thriller, but nothing too exciting or different to show that the old Ruth Ware is back. A good women banding together book set on an island.

I guess it’s good for a vacation book (and then you can leave it at the hotel book exchange 😉).
