3.75 - so twisted and dark ! Was not expecting it to be like that!

3.5 maybe a 4 for the cliffhanger lol

Probably more like a 3.5 but I eff with the smut lol

3.75

3.5 - 4 if I'm being generous because the ending picked up pretty well (but not really lol) I listened to this majority on audio because I didn't have time to sit down and read it physically and I'm glad I did. Reading it physically just seemed too wordy for me but I reallyyy wanted to read this story! Not too sure if ill re-read it to give it another shot. I'll most likely pick up Hell Bent on audio but I'm not really dying to read it.

Not as impactful as the first book in the series however Dot Hutchison's writing is really great and so easy to read/listen to. I did listen to the audiobook for this one and read the first two on kindle in the past but i still enjoyed the story and characters

Happily giving this 5 stars! Wow! So SO GOOD! The author writes persepctive so well and I think that is what kept me intrigued. She tells a story so well too, so vividly. I'm a lover a true crime so the premise was interesting for me but she also somehow made it so real sounding and hauntingly beautiful! This reminded me of a book I read in high school called Tenderness by Rober Cormier. It had touched on the main guy being a seemingly “good” guy kind of like Ansel narrative - so interesting. For me this book checks all the boxes !

4.8 - very interesting read...Faith endured so much but is such an inspiration !

4.8 -OMG WHY DID IT HAVE TO END LIKE THAT


Okay, this was an emotional rollercoaster.. very heavy on the psychological drama. I really felt the main character's uncertainty and fear, however, it kinda felt dragged on (why it's not 5 stars for me). Like, yes, I know you are feeling this way,and it sucks but like, do something about it. Idk maybe I'm just too harsh on the circumstances in which she was in. It's a very interesting perspective on motherhood as well since we get a feel of three generations of women and their trickling impact (good and bad) on eachother. I think if I remove myself from the story it's 5 stars for me so I'll round up lol the things she did as a mother are not things I would do (or agree with) especially when it came to her daughter. I couldn't empathize entirely but i did when it came to her son, for sure. The ending made me release the breath I didn't even know I was holding

The writing is exquisite and the story is very gripping!

3.8 - I'm all for justice...revenge, mehhh okay sure...this story executed it pretty well. It's a pretty quick listen too.

All I can say is WOW ! Gripping, emotional, inspirational...

3.8 - I enjoyed this really because I resonated with the characters so much specifially with what Lauren was going through as far as her mindset of how a relationship and marriage should be. There were times where I just rolled my eyes though, like, really girl, come on (but i cried too) lol

3.6 - love him ! It was interesting to hear his story.

3.7 - very good story... I listened to this for something different. I hadn't read something like this before but it was very enjoyable.

4.2 - really enjoyed this story! The atmosphere, the characters, the plot is where the points are knocked off. The ending seemed a bit rushed but I liked what happened. I very much would like to physically read it but I recommend the audiobook. The narrator nailed all the characters and background characters

4.4 - I really enjoyed this story. I knew I'd be a lover of magical realism and whimsical writing and this is a great example I think! Loved the emphasis on family and the superstitious aspect -being a hispanic/Latino descendant I very much related to that. I think the ending was a bit rushed (the climax of the story was shortish) but overall, very great listen on audiobook!

4.2 ! Really enjoyed this story and the audio. I'm not too into Shakespeare so I couldn't relate much in that regard but overall I enjoyed the theme. Very nice addition to a spooky read in October ^-^

Such a classic and I'm glad I was able to hear the audiobook.

3.5 - fairly enjoyable but not anything that “wow-ed” me. Some parts were pretty creepy to listen to and the story was unique enough to keep listening.

3.7!
Listened to the audiobok and enjoyed it. Didn't blow me out of the water but I really like how the show not tell writing went. Almost played out like a movie and I think it would be great as a movie to be honest.

Not as enjoyable as the first one but it had a really good set up from the next book!! :)

2.8... I don't have much to say. Thought it would more entertaining and interesting but it was just “hmm okay” to me haha

3.8 :) audio book is very enjoyable !

4.6 !

Very enjoyable insight on “the meaning of life” and happiness. I think the audio book version was perfect for the informational content - not bornong or dragging at all! Some of it was a little repetitive but still insightful.
