"I like it a lot. Although I find the timeline jump all over the place. And it’s not really a satisfying ending for me. However, I do love go she uses Covid as a plot line. Idk why this was Barns and Noble thriller book of the month but overall, I enjoyed it."

"Im not sure why but this book really didn't get my attention...and I DNF it...the writing was a little stiff for me...too much of unnecessary descriptions..."

"This was the first book I’ve read that took place during the covid pandemic and it was a little hard to read! (Too soon!) I enjoyed the twists and back and forth chapters to tell the full story."

"I really enjoyed this book! It had a lot of twists and turns and an ending you didn’t see coming! I kinda enjoyed the flash back writing the author used! It made it more interesting for me. This book was for sure a page turner. "

"verrrrrry slow burn. once you get probably 3/4 of the way through it really picks up and keeps you on the edge of your seat but if you get bored easily or if you don’t like slow burn this is not for you! it’s a good mystery/crime. "

"This was an intriguing thriller. Going back and forth from time. Oliver sees a woman and think she is a reporter that found him. We don’t know right away why he is so suspicious. However, when he meets her they have a connection and he dismisses his paranoia. What did he do and who is this woman? Solid thriller in the background of Covid."

"This was a good book that I enjoyed except that it talks and has the COVID pandemic in it and I'm not in the best mental place for reading that. If I had realized how much of the pandemic was in it, I don't know if I would have read it.<br/>For me, since the pandemic is still going on and it's rather fresh still, it wasn't easy to read something with that much of the pandemic in it. The whole story was disturbing and I can see why people would enjoy it and I would have enjoyed it more if I was reading it at a different time like farther in the future. I really had mixed feelings about this story."
