Reviewed by Luzie💕🪷okay at first: this was a book we had to read in class which impacts my perception of this book. I'm not really a fan of crime fiction and the constant anxiousness, so in conclusion this book I didn't really like the book. But objectively, this story is really well written. The author does a really great job at beeing not too predictable (in my opinion, some people in my class thought the plot twist was obvious..not sure if I'm the problem here lol). But if you like reading on the edge of your seat, a quick read and especially psychological elements, this is your cup of tea
