This was a really engaging read that I had trouble putting down. It centers on Maddy and Sadie, who did something unthinkable 10 years ago and lost touch, but are brought back together when a similar event arises. Chapters alternate between their POVs and you also get chapters from Pearl’s POV, where you quickly learn her inappropriateness in the lives of the other 2 women.

This was an interesting story, as the reader pretty much knows what the “bad thing” is through most of the book, but there are so many other twists thrown in regarding the details of that event and even the relationships between the characters that it felt suspenseful the whole way through. I also liked the current and present timelines that helped me to better understand the characters- characterization was done well without a ton of time spent on it. The ending made me sad but I also felt it worked with the rest of the story.

Overall, this was a fast-paced read with surprise twists and I would recommend to those who enjoy psychological thrillers. Thanks to NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This is one of those wonderfully-convoluted novels I am fond of. It involves two friends--Maddy and Sadie, a car accident at night and a young girl with secrets of her own.Told in 10-year increments, the book details how each of the characters meet, have families, keep secrets, and eventually discover that lies are usually always discovered! I raced through it as it's a unique plot that kept me guessing until the end!
Thanks to NetGalley for this ARC!
