If you had an abusive best friend in high school, be aware. I doubt I’m going to finish this book because idc how Delia died. She was a horrible friend to June.

60% done: so we’re just gonna pretend this isn’t a story about a nonverbal autistic child who is actively abused by her mother and doesn’t know how to articulate it?

There is no spooky/thriller/suspense aspect. Just an author who took the criteria for autism and psychopathy and smushed them into a completely unbelievable seven year old.

At 15% and about to quit. The fatphobia is icky asf.

Plot officially lost. You expect me to believe that a serial killer psychopath ditched his life long yearning to kill…Dark Passenger Dexter…Suddenly switched it up to being Darling Daddy Dexter. Obsessed with his newborn. He has now cried without faking it. Time to stop “pretending” Dex is human. Also…we get it. Astor and Cody communicate well through unspoken looks. Just say they gave each other The Look.

This is the longest it’s taken me to figure out the twist. Even if I’m right, the entire first half of this book is just giving The Shining.

56% done and i have never felt so validated in my marriage to mikey.

stared great! very captivating. now it’s just. meh.

i will read anything she writes. if everyone wrote with that skill, books would be so much more enjoyable.

so you’re telling me. that a bitch’s husband goes missing. and said bitch doesn’t tell a single soul for two days. gets a concerned call from husbands best friend. lies. and then is shocked when her surgeon husband’s work calls and says he’s missing?

this is asinine.

the writing is elementary and the plot twist is already obvious. probably gonna be a dnf

Dnf at 63% because while the writing is pretty great, the plot drags for seemingly no reason. I still don’t understand what’s so great about this discovered city, and I have 6 other books on my Libby shelf…so I don’t plan on sticking this one out. How is there a sequel

DNF. It’s a lacrosse book 🤣

if you want to know why Will laughed before he slapped Chris...this book will tell you. <3

this may be the first ruth ware i dnf'd! felt like a weak attempt to recreate and then there were none, by miss-tery queen, agatha.

dnf...boring version of hunger games

"when she laughs, two little vertical lines remain between her eyebrows as if her face is afraid to have too much fun" THREW ME TO THE SUN
