This started off with so much promise. The premise felt fresh, imaginative, and genuinely fun — I was ready to be obsessed. But somewhere along the way, the magic started slipping. Now I’m side-eyeing everything, questioning every twist, and wondering if the story is reaching just a little too hard. I’m still holding out hope…

This may be a wholly me phenomenon, but at this point in the book I still feel like I’m reading about total strangers. I have not connected with these characters. At all. I want to care. I simply… do not. At this point I’m reading out of mild curiosity and stubbornness.

Did I miss a chapter? Or five? Feels like I accidentally started this book halfway through. Who are these people and why should I care? No context, no introductions, just vibes and confusion. Mildly frustrated, cautiously optimistic. Hoping it starts to make sense soon.

This is a fun read so far—emphasis on fun. Not deep, not meaty, not here to change my worldview. This is an entertaining, glossy, “just one more chapter” kind of book.

What? A steamy shower scene ?!? More like a light mist. I never sensed any chemistry between these two characters...

I keep waiting for this thriller to thrill me, lol....

I absolutely loved the first book in the Angie Pallorino trilogy, The Drowned Girls, and I’m really excited to dive into book two, The Lullaby Girl.

One person with multiple identities...who is this mysterious Alistair / Nick / Jonathan / Damian character? Are there more personalities we haven't met? Who is he really? What does he want, and what is he afraid will be discovered?
