I HAVE REGRETS. WHY DID I READ THIS ON HALLOWEEN. There's nothing scarier than an active mystery crime man. This book is incredibly well written. It's the best combination of romance, mystery, and crime. One genre doesn't undermine the other nor get suppressed by the other at all. Also I love a partners in crime duo (on the lowdown).

Honestly the scariest thing imo is... (spoiler DO NOT LOOK if u plan to actually read this and fully enjoy it; which u should bc I recommend this novel; come back after... more>> to confer with or deny my opinion)
Spoiler

when there's a pe*ophile activing dating a minor. That is creeps man. You should not be 37 dating a 17 yr old. I doubt they got together before she was 18 so still f*ckin valid. Worse. If you're in a position of power over them and you're in a relationship with them... That is f*cking creepy. Like when they told us he was 37 at the time? MOTHERf*ckING I was rage and disgust and creeped out while also being like I need to stop it's dark outside mom

Although I can't say I am impressed by who the villain ended up being, only bc there was so much mystery behind them that a lot word dumping had to happen near the end, which ruined the tension/scare factor for me. But I will say I loved how we had to look at the past situation from like a bijillion angles to find them; it was like a game of perspective.

I still stand by the fact this is the best balanced romance mystery crime I've ever read; strong in romance & mystery. (Even if there are more intense crime novels out there) this still stands out for it's perfect balance and also then being largely romance at the end of everything -- It doesn't end abruptly just bc the case is done, which is nice for romance fans. <<less

This ticked off every good novel criteria for me.

Independent FL, ML wasnt overworship as Male God, decent suspense, and HE!!!

Spoiler

It's not really horror story even though the synopsis could make you thought so. Just some psychopath dressing as his/her victim to feel the sense of substitution (?). And this said psychopath pretty much the reason why our couple broke up, they will only find out after years.

[collapse]

It only contains 70 chapter so the Author might not have enough time make a bigger suspense nevertheless I like this story.

A short satisfying mystery novel.

Not much (any?) horror but decent enough breadcrumb trail of mystery elements to entice the reader. Romance is basically high school sweethearts who never got over each other and speed run the adult relationship once they pierce the window paper. Romantic tension is pretty nice and despite the fast nature of the relationship, the leads are comfortable with each other and there's enough backstory/flashback to support their interactions.

Some suspension of disbelief required for the overarching mystery but still tolerable and easy enough to read.
