This was not suspenseful at all. Began almost like a cheesy romance. The twist was so unbelievable is was frustrating. Not worth the time.
It was a wonderful read better than I expected from a writer
unknown to me. I am certainly going to read her other books.
Didn’t see the ending coming. I thought it was so obvious…but I was dead wrong.
Enjoyed this book until the end. Lots of twists and possibilities in the plot, but at the end I was disappointed because I felt like all the development of the characters and the plot came to such an abrupt end. It seemed to me the author was under a deadline and had to quickly wrap it up and write the ending. Instead of developing the plot and continuing to lay it all out.
This book was an excellent read and was defnitely not predictable. I read every chance I got to finish the book and was totally surprised at the ending. Best book for sure!
A real page turner. Couldn’t put it down. Totally surprise ending. Creepy!
I enjoyed the story line quite a bit. It was dark, and touched on the very real topic of domestic violence. It was sometimes a bit too obvious – especially with Ben. But, maybe that’s just me. SPOILER ALERT!!! – for someone who was supposed to be an educated psychologist – she was almost too naive – seriously? who doesn’t know how to make yourself throw up? As a trained professional in human behavior, it just seemed implausible that she would be that blind to Ben’s perfection or lack of any human imperfection.
I really liked the twisted ending. I did not seem that coming.
Her use of English could be improved (“accessed” instead of “assessed” for example) and her writing could be a bit more descriptive. Good story, but some of the wording got in the way.
Suspenseful!! The only reason I didn’t give it four stars is because the ending seemed to come all of sudden, like the author was ready to be finished!
It was a good read.
Interesting with the ghost aspect
Before I finished this book, I started looking for a sequel! I didn’t want it to end. Great character development and intriguing plot.
Ok for a beach read. A little cheesy.
This was definitely a page turner. You think you have a ‘true’ idea of what is going on in the main character’s life but… well, no spoilers here. You just have to read for yourself. Many twists and turns in this book! I was truly surprised toward the end. Author did a fantastic job!
Couldn’t put it down!
Page Turner for sure! Kept me wondering to the very end. Loved the unpredictable nature.
Somewhat confusing.
The twists in this book will keep you thinking you have the answers, until the very end. A great read couldn’t stop, thought I had everyone figured out until the other shoe dropped and I realized I was just spinning in circles.
Liked it. Will look for more from this author.
I did not care for the main character.
