5.0

This book was wildly predictable right from the beginning and I knew exactly how it was going to end by about 25 pages in. That didn't stop it from being an incredibly fun read of the type that's absolutely perfect when you just want some "thriller trash" escapism. There was definitely nothing cerebral or even a little bit surprising about any of this, but I really enjoyed it anyway and appreciated it for the fun ride it was.

It was an interesting read though it isn’t the kind of book I usually read it was still a nice read. Though I wasn't expecting the ending at the beginnin. But it does end up giving you some clues the more you read.
