Padfoot's Lazy Book Club discussion

I really enjoyed this one but towards the end I started expecting both Tom and Anna. I thought Rachel and Scott would have been too obvious. So I wasn't completely shocked by the end. I thought it wrapped up well, but because I wasn't completely caught off guard I didn't rate it 5 stars. I rated it 4 stars and definitely recommend it.

I really loved this book it had me guessing the whole time. I was at one point worried that Rachel did something to Megan because she was so drunk, but then closer to the end I loved how everything fell together. I rated this 5 stars and would recommend to everyone.

Rachel was a great character because she frustrated me, in a good way. She was such an unreliable narrator, and I kept thinking "get it together." Anna played the victim, but I couldn't like her either. There was just something about her that I couldn't get pass.

I absolutely loved this book because it drew me in from page one. It was so captivating and thrilling, but I could guess the killer after 2/3 of the book. None of the characters were likable, but that's what made me love this book even more. I enjoyed it so much! And I rated it 4 out of 5 stars.

This book was a page-turner for me, and although most things were predictable, it was interesting to read how the characters reacted. I got annoyed with Rachel halfway through the book, and I still don't understand how a grown woman can be so naive and clingy. I didn't like the fact that some things were included although, in my opinion, they weren't relevant to the story(Rachel's jealousy that makes her take her ex-husband's child from the crib, intruding their home like a burglar. What was with that?!). I did like that all the characters were faulty people, although they seemed perfect, they all had their flaws, and that is realistic, but, again, Rachel's character felt far-fetched.

I wrote about my thoughts on this book on my blog post, check it out if you want:) http://blog.ioanatrifu.me/post/113394...

Just finished this one. I really enjoyed it! I never suspected Rachel at any point throughout the story, but she was not a likeable character. I wanted to scream at her to just get her shit together! I found myself liking Anna more and more towards the end.
The story kept me guessing until the last couple of chapters when it became quite obvious. I am going to rate it 4 stars!

I finished this book over this past weekend. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't what I expected it to be. I thought the "red herring" characters were pretty obvious. The first characters the book tries to get you to suspect are neeeeever the murderer. I am rating this book 3.5 stars.

I just finished it this morning!! I really liked it but it took me a while to like the characters. I started suspecting Tom or Anna at the end of the book so the ending wasn't a HUGE surprise.:) I rated it 3.5 out if 5 stars

I just finished the book now! The ending was sort of expected, but it evoked a very strong reaction in me. Towards the end my heart began to race and I felt anxious. The characters felt real to me too. They all had problems and that's what made them feel dynamic and real to me. I also felt strongly towards certain characters. I hated Anna and I liked Rachel. But the part with the corkscrew and Anna in the very end...omg it made me cringe. But i gave it 4 out of 5 stars. And i recommend it.

In case it interests someone to see it, I've done a book review of it on YouTube: https://youtu.be/EDi159UAp3s .
I really enjoyed this book in general, especially because of the plot twist at the end. The characters were very unlikeable to me, but the way they were introduced to us made the book still interesting which I think is a very challenging thing for an author. Something bothered me about the end though: it was wrapped up way too quickly, in just a few pages you have a plot twist and a little sequel of what happens to the rest of the characters after hand. And that's it. There wasn't more than that, so I was a little disappointed by the end but the plot twist that I have not seen coming saved it for me!
