Very rarely do I give one star reviews. But this book is a liar. It explicitly states that it has "a shocking twist that will leave you breathless". I waited and waited. I read on and on in what seemed like the sloggiest, slowest paced book that I think I've ever read. And then the book ended. Leaving me wondering what the shocking twist is. The shocking twist that even the most inexperienced thriller readers will see coming a mile away. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop. But, alas, my shoes stayed upon my feet.

The utter disappointment in this book. The boredom. The incessant repetitive sentences, thoughts, explanations... I absolutely resent the time I wasted on this horrendous book.

10/10 DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME.
