THOUGHTS
ahhh!
shari KNOWS how to take you on a ride doesn't she?
shari KNOWS how to take you on a ride doesn't she?
at the rate im going, this probably wont see the light of say until the end of the year if im lucky? next, if im honest?
anyway, ill make this quick.
yes this one fucked me up.
the ride was !!!!!
i GENUINELY had no idea who the killer was. i had SO MANY theories and NONE revolved around the killer. well, 1 did but it was...not anywhere near what i was thinking lol.
overall, i did like the story but in the end, not even that epilogue could make me love this story as much as i have loved all her others. Shari is THE QUEEN, at least i think, at epilogues. no matter which way your mind wanders after she's done with the story, you still get your own good conclusion. i feel like the epilogue here is a final one. like IF it happens, you know whats gon' happen.
not only that but, and this maybe a bit spoilery, i have seen this ending already once before. and for me personally, that one was done better. idunno.
also, i feel like for as hard as Reyes was like tryina ride this cases' ass, when he finally hits the jackpot, he just says fuck it.
this one feels a little lazy? i love Shari but this is probably my 2nd least fave books of hers. its not bad, it just isn't a fave of mine like others have been.
------
im cleaning house so thats where the goodies end.
it has been almost a year since i read this book but i still stand by it being my second least favorite. it just felt idk. this one wasnt for me but its not at all bad ive just seen it already before. if i remove that from the equation i still dont know how i would feel? eh, anyway....
anyway, i didnt do spoilers because im me but i did attach some notes so ill include those after.
thanks for sticking around!
these are just some screenshots of some notes i took.
but the quick of it is that the killer was jenna.
uhm - yeah. lol. useful-ish.
but the gist is that the killer is uhm Jenna.
and she does get away with it BUT the reason that she will get caught is because the land where she buried the evidence has just gone up for sale and its being bought by the woman or man or idk that was trying to catch her in the first place.
that or they live next door to the land being sold where the evidence is in or idk but its something like that and therefore....... but if the sale goes thru, she gets caught.
obvs there were other things but this is all i remember.
im a mess.
love you
xo!
