#doublespin this was a re-read for me & I stand by my original conclusion that this is a rare case of the tv show being better than the book. But, it was ok, and I will continue with the series!

Woke up early so watching the film. I seen it before read book 3 times.
1am: starts book from TBR shelf. Interestingly this book has a ton of bad reviews. We shall see…..
In 1997, the body of teenager Tom Jeffries is discovered in the marshland, a year after he had disappeared. 20 years later, a Serial type of podcast revisits his unexplained death in 6 interviews with people close to situation. This was great. A little frustrating because people are always holding something back and you just want to scream-Just tell us!!! This has some nice folklore misdirection, I was starting to believe in Nana Wrack. lol,Pick!
I‘ve enjoyed this author‘s novels before but I REALLY liked this one! This is my favorite of hers so far! Putting all the pieces together kept me listening to this audiobook, as did the great narration. The characters are all deliciously twisted and most are unlikable in the best possible way. Definitely recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I've just put this in the mail. I triple checked that I sent it to the right place. 🥴
I initially started this book a while back and then re-started it. I went through it rather quick, as a psychological thriller it does make you want to keep reading. However, I can‘t really pinpoint when, perhaps the last few chapters, but after finishing the book, I just felt indifferent. 😐
Pick-ish 3.5⭐
So, it turns out this pretty cover is hiding something so very twisted. What started rather slow eventually picked up steam as it went along and that ending left me stunned plus a few other feelings but in the moment, I was there for it just because of how much it took me by surprise. The shifting timelines coupled with the shifting POVs do get a touch confusing but otherwise, this one has the potential to appeal to some.
