Although I wouldn't label this book a 'psychological thriller',I still found it a pleasure to read. It's not terribly exciting or anything, I just enjoyed reading about Jodi and how everything she tried so hard to keep together falls apart. I liked it more than Gone Girl (which everyone seems to be doing!) but I don't recommend comparing the two or reading one based on your opinion on the other.

It's too bad the author isn't with us anymore- I'd have definitely picked up another book of hers.
