** spoiler alert **
I feel like the story dragged on and after reading so many psychological thrillers by Freida McFadden, I’m just unfazed to any twists. And to be quite frank, the author should have left the twist alone instead of double backing.
I could not stand any of the characters. The mc Joanne had no backbone, and continued to sweep everything under the rug for the sake of not arguing with her husband but miss girl, STAND YOUR GROUND!! Handle that little scrawny stepdaughter b✨tch from hell. And don’t get me started on her whack ass excuse of a husband. Gaslighting her, and always having her think there was something wrong with her, when in fact, he’s known the truth all along. He withheld so many information that could’ve saved his family (himself included). He was the problem just as much as his crazy ass daughter was.
1 star for me.

Dani right?! Hopefully this next read makes up for it 🤞🏽
Damn, I’m sorry this didn’t work out for you! I had high hopes for this but have been seeing mixed reviews recently about how gaslit the book actually makes u feel 🥴 it was gonna be my next read before I decided on if we were villains but idk now probably not 😅 I hope your next read is way better!! 🫶🏼
Sabrina thank youuu!! 💕 and still, give it a read anyway. You might enjoy it more than I did or just be as irritated 😂
Idk I keep hearing everyone say how irritated they were with this 😭😂 esp this girl on tiktok that I watch her @ is Larryreads. I think u did a great job at summarizing it anyway so thank u for your honesty!! 💖
Sabrina oooh! I’ll check it out. And you’re very welcome 😌🫶🏽🫶🏽
I feel the same way. Also, what was up with Roxanne, I expected her to be involved in some way as she seemed to be spying on Joanne at the beginning and then nothing.
Estefany I thought so too. I just don’t get why she was spilling literally everything to Chloe, or what did she even have against Joanne to begin with?
If I was married to that guy, I would have told him to F off multiple times.
Yes!! I agree with everything you said! I absolutely hated the characters, and the ending had me rolling my eyes.
Angelee He made my blood boil so much!
I feel exactly the same! Richard was unbearable and so was Chloe. The first 20 chapters were a collection of “she said this” …”no, I didn’t”…”you’re so forgetful you’re just, like your mom”. Like we knew from the prologue Jo and Evie would be in danger. We knew from the title it had to be Chloe that would most likely put them in danger. I never believed once that the Richard was behind all that.
heavy on frieda mcfadden because nothing fazes me at this point like i was just mad at joanne for not recording her saying this stuff ...
you had me ar frieda mcfadden
THANK YOU. I could not finish reading this effing book, as I couldn't stand ANY of the central characters! I stopped shortly after the b*tch@ss daughter became the babysitter and kept denying things the mom said/asked her to do. This book sucked.
The back and forth whinny dialogue is driving me nuts, but I’m a sucker and must know how this ends. I’m about 60% of the way done so… I’ll keep going!
I spent an entire day reading this and I was so mad and disappointed at the end I couldn’t believe I spent a whole day reading it haha
