"The anxiety I felt was unreal what reading this book. As I saw Iris’s behavior become more and more unusual, I kept wondering, “what does she want?” Countless theories compiled into my head. This novel will definitely get you thinking, and make you second-guess EVERYTHING. Even to people closest to you can’t be trusted, I suppose. 🫢"

"This book is great for anyone looking for a suspense and mystery novel that tells a great story. Each time something out of place happened in the story, I started to create scenarios about what might happen in the future. It was a fun, interesting book with some scary plot twists and an interesting ending that will make you think."

"I have read many of Natashas books (the cabin, the cellar, the fear, the lake) and it’s not a secret that she loves to use terrible endings or endings that make you think.. but this book was just awful. I was really hoping for once for a decent ending. Poor Ivy!! "

"Overall disappointment. Natasha has a way of writing that regardless seems to leave you a bit intrigued. However, this book was incredibly predictable. I knew the twist within the first chapter or two. And it all unfolded exactly how expected. Nothing really surprised me. As always the ending was very open and unfinished but the story being as predictable as it was just made that annoying. Only thing that could have saved this book ****SPOILER ALERT*** is Ivy having proved Iris wrong. Also annoyed as to why she would not hit record on her phone before going into the Josie so she could capture Iris confession? Seems like a total no brainer move"
