I was hooked on this book right from the start! To say I was deeply emotionally invested in the characters and their wellbeing would be an understatement. I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. Even when I wasn’t reading, I was still thinking about them, wondering what they were going to do and how they would get out of this situation.
There is so much inner turmoil in this story and you’re not really sure how much of it, if any, is actually real or if it’s in Naomi, our main character’s, head. I was on the edge of my seat, feeling the pain and desperation Naomi was going through, resonating with the loneliness of suspecting a toxic behavior from someone that you can’t prove to others. I found myself often holding my breath in anticipation of when the truth would be revealed.
There were plot twists, several gasp worthy moments, and lots of agonizing suspense (in the best way!) so if that sounds like your jam, you should definitely read this book!
