I really enjoyed this one - I found Lizzie's descent into the relationship between Zach and Amanda to be fulfilling and graceless, all at the same time. I thought I knew where this one was going to curve, but then it would swing wildly in the opposite direction - my favorite thing to have happen in a thriller! I thought I knew where things were going and I often pride myself in being that smart (don't we all!?) but McCreight really proved that she is a mastermind of the domestic thriller on this one. My least favorite thing was the pacing in the beginning - it started off a bit slow, but it did pick up near the end and I really began to enjoy myself. This one is tense, but so good and SO worth it!
