Did Not Finish

This book is laughably bad. It has very little reviews and honestly that’s because it’s not worth the time writing about it. The characters were AWFUL. Not a single one of them I liked. I hated the writing style, the way it was so broken up in such a terrible way. I just couldn’t! This is not for me and I honestly wish I’d NEVER picked this up.
Fun fact is I read the back to see the spoiler and it was SO obvious! Like what was the point of the book it was that obvious 😭

It literally read like you were trying to get all the marks and hit the criteria to a English language writing exam

Its slow to begin with but as the story goes on it drags you in - never expected the twist at the end

I enjoyed reading this. I was entertained and I did think about it when I wasn’t reading it. And there were definitely moments where I gasped. I really did not foresee the ending either, I just didn’t think that could be the case somehow. Definitely recommend for a quick-ish read or for a holiday.
