Great story, but really wish I’d known about child abuse content which starts two minutes in. Would have chosen something else.

Horrific

If you take joy in noticing the importance of small details, planted as seeds that grow into revelations chapters later that make little light bulbs go off with the physical feeling of a gut punch as realizations rush to you, then this is for you.
It's clear that every word is written with clear intent and importance and I'm sure a second listen/ read through would illuminate many more of these small moments I overlooked the first time, too focused on the amazing plot progression to reflect on each detail as much as they deserve.
The flow of the story is beautifully done through multiple perspectives, something I sometimes find jarring or rushed.
The characters are full of life and relatable in a simple and compelling way.
I felt a full range of emotions while listening and found myself not simply liking or disliking a character, but rather having complex emotional ties to each one.
The narration is wonderful.
I highly recommend to anybody with interest in the genre.

Absolutely Incredible

Some of the best narration. But I found the characters talked alot to themselves in their heads before answering someone and it was often hard to tell where the thoughts ended and the real response started. I enjoyed the story but wham bam all done at the end. Anyways, it was a good book overall, the story was good, just the whole end part was too quick and not enough.

Good story & great narration!

The book is great! It’s unpredictable until the very end and doesn’t go on unnecessarily long. My only issue was the reader in Part 1, which is about the first hour of the book, is awful. It starts fine but then gets weirdly raspy. It’s actually very hard to listen to because it’s so irritatingly fake. I almost quit the book but I got through it and the rest of the book is great and that actor doesn’t come back. Good listen!

Just get past Part 1 and it’s so good!

Despite having the end figured out pretty early on, I found this story compelling and exciting. I was definitely not disappointed with the twists and turns. A well written and well narrated story that deserves a place on your TBR list!

Great Story
