Overall Thoughts:
⁕ Honestly, this story had way more layers than the typical thriller, especially in terms of character development. Owen especially is so complicated, and Jewell’s humanization of someone who is so flawed REALLY made me think about my own biases and assumptions.
⁕ There were some recapping of traumatic events that the characters experienced which I really didn’t feel were necessary to go into detail on. It felt like they were more there for shock value than to contribute to the actual story.
⁕ The ending was a bit rushed and almost felt too neat.
