Oh my goodness this book blew me away! Not even kidding. It was so bingeable. I could not put it down. The plot was so good and I absolutely loved the twist! 

The characters were all great. I felt sorry for Millie for how Nina treated her. CeCe was a mega brat. Nina was a bit neurotic but understandable. Andrew was a different kettle of fish altogether. I'm saying nothing about this suave, handsome and charming man. The characters all worked perfectly together in the story.

The story itself was so well written. There were no plot holes or any unanswered questions by the time the read was over. It honestly made my day. I love a thriller and I definitely think Freida is the queen of them! I love a plot twist that's unexpected because I can't work it out and this book delivered!

I highly recommend this if you love thrillers. Also if you've never read a thriller or want to read more then please make this your first port of call!!
