    The book is very slow is the beginning but about half way through it picks up, which helps. There are parts that feel a little unnecessary (IE: random missing girl that ends up having nothing to do with the main plot) but it was a good twist at the end. I wish it would have given more sneak peaks a little earlier on
  • I finished this book in 3 days

    I’m gonna be honest and say that I have only read two books completely through in my entire life. I picked this book one night when trying to read to fall asleep. Nope. I stayed up in 5am reading this book. I seriously could not put this book down and am obsessed. The way it’s written keeps you on your toes, trying to put together all the puzzle pieces. I’ve gasped out loud three times lol! THANK YOU MARY!!!!!!
  • Boring and unbelievable

    This writer has a lot of talent but she needs an editor(s) to tell her she hasn’t finished her story yet. Ending was very contrived. And it just doesn’t work to have one of the main characters telling major portions of the story in first person singular, then describe her own murder! I tried that in 6th grade and my English teacher gave me a “C”.
  • Couldn’t put it down!

    I just felt the ending and investment of time spent reading the book were not worth the effort. The writer is obviously very talented but the story seems forced.
  • Solid start
