This might actually hover somewhere around 3.75 stars, but it was a perfectly fine, entertaining thriller. Almost thriller-lite, for those that don’t want too much violence or scary bits. It was more like a moody, dramatic character study. I liked all the different narrators, and I felt that added to the reading experience. The ending felt abrupt and somewhat disappointing, though I’m not sure how else you could have wrapped it all up.
Moderate: Sexual content, Suicide, Torture, Violence, Abortion, Murder, and Toxic friendship
