This book was a crazy compelling read. I flew through the audio in just under 48 hours, which is fast, even for me. I was totally fooled by Jackson, who is a trash person. Amber isn't that great either, but I liked that I knew that from the beginning and was still rooting for her at the end to be an antidote to Jackon's major issues. Definitely a must-read for anyone who likes thrillers/major plot twists.
