I love Jewell's writing but this is probably my least favorite of her books I have read. It is very dark. It kept me reading and had some twists but was rough going in places. It took awhile to adjust to the different characters' perspectives. The ending left me disturbed.

I almost have nothing to say about this one, and for that reason I am writing a review. Some reviews talk about the subject matter being bothersome or disturbing, and I can see how that could be the case. For me though, that is not my reason for disliking it; all I can say is that I found the storyline and plot just plain bad. I am disappointed.

Dark and disturbing but I couldn't put it down. Lots of unexpected twists that were shocking, weird and heartbreaking. Once you start this creepy story you won't know whether to love or hate it. Lisa Jewel has quickly one of my favorite authors.

After such rave reviews for this book I was sorely disappointed with it. Libby gets a letter on her 25th birthday that she has come into an inheritance from her birth parents, thus starting the journey of who she really is. The story is split into different past and present parts with 3 people narrating. Long & boring I just couldn't connect with any of the characters and the story had too many gaps.
