I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review here and on my blog Samwise Reviews. I enjoyed this book and there was nothing wrong with it, but it didn't blow me away. It had a gentle, meandering plot and I liked that the perspective kept switching between the three women. At each chapter we are given a bit of the police report with the other staff of agency and I found it definitely helped to draw suspense and show the tension between the different parties. Overall I wasn't able to guess most of the secrets and the ending did catch me by surprise, it just wasn't the roller coaster that I had expected.… (més)

I wasn't sure what to expect when I started this book and I was worried that I wouldn't like it, but the cover is fantastic and the synopsis sounded interesting, so I gave it a shot, and let me tell you - I was NOT disappointed!

I honestly didn't want to stop reading because I wanted to know what was gonna happen next. I wanted so desperately for Alice to be okay and the entire time, my mind was trying to piece together who was responsible for her disappearance. When I found out - I was honestly shook! That plot twist threw me for a serious loop, not that I'm complaining.

As for Brian, I honestly hate it, but that's all I'll say because I don't know what counts as spoilers and what doesn't. I won't say why I hate him, just know that I REALLY hate him.

Now, I'm a sensitive bitch okay, so it doesn't take much for me to cry. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing... anyway, I had to hold back tears at the end of this book and I'm not ashamed to admit that. I really liked the two lead characters, Harriet and Charlotte, which is weird because I usually hate female characters - they annoy me.

These two are strong leads, though, and they really made the story so much better.

I'd definitely recommend this.… (més)
