*spoilers ahead*

Let me work backward first. I wish Rose had really let Sarah stand up in her bad bitch era and really put Adam in his place. I wanted Sarah to run down her resume of all the things she did for that mediocre, half-twit of a man, and then say that she did what she did because he had her fucked up! Because he did!

Adam thought he was just going to run away with the waitress from the coffee shop! Sarah bought you a lake house. Sarah put herself through law school. Sarah put up with your lackluster career. Sarah financed everything about your life. And above everything else, Sarah put up with your mother! Adam, you really had her full circle fucked up.

There are so many characters that take your eyes off what is really going on. The sheriff’s department is inadequate and everyone should have been fired. The way they all botched the case, overlooked evidence, blatantly ignored evidence, and didn’t look into any viable suspects – infuriated me. No police force should be that dumb. Of course, Adam is going to jail!

Oh and Adam! Top 5 dumbest characters of all time. The fact that he is an imbecile makes what I said earlier, much sweeter. He was the weakest link in this whole story and frankly again, he had Sarah fucked up.

The whole last chapter should have been summed up with, “Adam had the IQ of a peanut and I did what needed to be done.” The End. I hated that she ended up with Bob… BOB?! Anne was pointless, could have kept that story too. Then Bob and Sarah have a daughter, Summer and she doesn’t want Summer to depend on a man like her mom – boooooooo, tomato tomato tomato.

Sarah, you’re a serial killer. You have three bodies on you.

Any why did Rose focus so heavily on the expensive labels when it came to what Sarah and Eleanor were wearing?

Speaking of Eleanor… I would have knocked that old lady’s dentures into that little dangling thing that swings in the back of her throat (word to Cardi B). Eleanor also had Sarah fucked up.

I’m Whitney

I’m diving back into reading and taking my time to really enjoy each book—soaking up the writing, analyzing the characters, and seeing what makes a story stick (or miss the mark). Right here is where I write honest, no-fluff reviews.
