Review
What a book! You are immediately sucked in the story from the first chapter. You want to know what’s happening right away, which makes you want to continue reading.
I did think that the book has a typical plot for a thriller, but Chinouk gave this story a nice twist with the connected souls of Carmen and Jessie.
This story gave me a bit of Pretty Little Liars vibes, with a stalker forcing Carmen to complete assignments through messages. I am a sucker for these kinds of books.
Chinouk wrote this book very well. After every chapter, you were on the edge of your seat.
While I was reading this story, I suspected who was behind the kidnapping and at the end. it turned out I was right. The ending really surprised me. It was the most exciting part of the whole book and I was reading it with my mouth right open. After reading the last chapter, I really wanted to know how this book would continue. So this book ends with an open end.
Conclusion
A very good book with a super ending which is very surprising. Chinouk has put a nice spin on the story with the connected souls of Carmen and Jessie.
