Very good book. Little weird. Tom was very bad. Liked Rachel and some of the others. Mystery books are always good.

Happy Easter everyone!!!

I literally couldn't leave it aside when I reached the last 100 pages.

It was so well written and everyone seemed suspect, I didn't even know what to think, I mean I had a hunch ever since the beginning, and it turned out I was right, but I did question it a lot of times.

What a riveting (cliched, I know) book! I could not stop once I started. Told from three different perspectives, the book unfolds in a series on "present" narrative, interspersed with flashbacks. As each woman tells her part of the story, you have to wonder if things are where they seem. The "main" narrator is Rachel, who has recently suffered a terrible loss.

The book has been compared to "Gone Girl" which is definitely a great tag line, but I enjoyed this so much more. ...more

It could have been shorter by 100 or 150 pages. The beginning was good but then it became very slow nothing was really happening, the same things over and over again.
