This book was a rambling mess; a disjointed and unpolished homage to the eighties movie, Single White Female. I can't recommend this at all.

This was a very intriguing book. I can’t say that I liked any of the characters but I found the story very interesting. I could not wait to see what happened next in the pages.
Many thanks to D2C Perspectives and to NetGalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

I wasn’t taken by this book! It was a struggle to read and easy to put down. Hopefully the series will get better!

Nope.

This appears to be a series, but I neither liked nor identified with the protagonist, and the secondary characters were beyond irritating. I have no desire to read any others.

Um livro muito interessante e me fez virar as páginas com uma grande velocidade; Me entreteve e foi um ótimo passatempo, além de uma leitura agradável.

Great book!!! I loved reading about Alexandra, and learning the truth about her. Very suspenseful thriller. The characters were very well defined. I really enjoyed this book and am hoping for a #2!!!

Intriguing premise...reminds me of Gillian Flynn's stories.

I had thought that this would be a bit more suspenseful and juicy than it really was. But overall an ok read.

This book was good, period. I found myself wanting to set aside time to read, which doesn’t always happen, even on the best of days with the best of books. I honestly had no idea what the deal was with Noreen, or Alex, or even Jared. They all seemed to be a bit quirky but obviously Noreen was the one who made me shake my head the most, thinking “why the hell would anyone be like this”.

What I didn’t quite get until near the end was how the book is about a woman who is tired of the sexism and obvious hypocrisy women face day in and day out in real life. Alex starts talking about it as the book goes on, and it does ring true. I found myself saying “right on, sister!” Of course, she takes things quite a bit further than the average person but that kind of made for the interesting read the book was. I really enjoyed the chase of finding out why Noreen was the way she was, why Alex was so cool and aloof, and what would happen between her and her roommate Jared. Overall, this book didn’t disappoint, and I was happy with the ending as it didn’t leave me hanging…too much.

Unfortunately, this book just wasn't for me. I did not think the writing style was up to my normal enjoyment, because the book just fell flat. I could not stand the main character or reading about her. I tried and tried to give it the benefit of the doubt, but it never got any better. I will definitely give the author another chance, but this was not my cup of tea. I think with better character development and more twists it could've been a much better read.

I received an ARC from NetGalley for an honest review.

This book had some mixed reviews! It was ... interesting... I didn't understand the title until I was 90% through.

I kept reading because I had no idea where it was going. Not sure I would read a second book with these characters.

A rambling mess. I wish I had chucked this earlier in the game. Just ridiculous and senseless. I don't recommend this one at all.
