I didn't really like any of the characters, but I think that it worked for this book because it made it easier to consider that person as the culprit. Ashley really was a bit too much, I agree. ;)The Candid Coverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17230628808960036784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-7238471108289794162018-08-12T08:22:16.113-07:002018-08-12T08:22:16.113-07:00This book sounds interesting.

I think I'd struggle a little with the characters but I love reading a book and trying to figure out what exactly happened and seeing the before and after told together could definitely keep twisting things about as you learn more about what happened and the characters you begin to question them. I do think the switching in POV would be an issue, though. I don't timeline jumping but I always struggle with multiple POV.Becky Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14938602345709426466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-64477436595364411962018-08-11T19:03:15.419-07:002018-08-11T19:03:15.419-07:00Hmm, I may have to skip this one.

It's fun to build towards that inevitable middle from both sides. <br /><br />I don't think I would like Ashley. No one should immediately trust someone that much, and they should never replace established friendships. That feels weird to me. Also, if she's smart and purposefully making reckless decisions, I would worry about what she was hiding (especially if she wasn't doing anything to help the situation).

I would think fear, except you said she is reckless, and whatever she's doing with Marco seems pretty damn reckless. Or maybe she figures whatever happens in Mexico stays in Mexico? Like her untimely demise perhaps? Now I really want to know how it ends, and Idk why. Also- why are these people friends? Do they even like each other? So many questions, yet probably not enough for me to deal with Ashley's nonsense and actually read it. Great review!!
