First want to thank Netgalley and the publisher for letting me read this in exchange for an honest review! When I saw this on the list to request to read I clicked so fast! I read “Lost Village” by Camilla and loved it. So I am so thankful to have been given a chance to read this one as well.

Eleanor's condition really makes for a thriller. I would hate to be put in her situation. Like, Lost Village, you have a point of view from someone who comes from a place they haven't been before and then you go back to the past and get a recollection of what happen from a family member during that time. I will admit I thought I had it figured out earlier what was going to happen and I was wrong, so that was nice.

The only things I have to complain about with the book is, like with Lost Village, they had a bit of a dry spell but even with it I really wanted to chug along and find out what was exactly going on. Another complaint is El in the end. Yeah, they were going to die by KiKi but I think El should have a bit more compassion for her. She also should have recognize that her grandmother was a damn mess and shouldn't have gotten as much compassion as she did.

Other than that it was a very good read, had me on the edge of my seat, and left in a kind of “what next?” phase!
