GoodReads Description: "What if the nightmares are actually memories?

It's been a year since Poppy's husband, Jack, was brutally murdered during his morning run through Manhattan's Riverside Park. In the immediate aftermath, Poppy spiraled into an oblivion of grief, disappearing for several days only to turn up ragged and confused wearing a tight red dress she didn't recognize. What happened to Poppy during those lost days? And more importantly, what happened to Jack?

The case was never solved, and Poppy has finally begun to move on. But those lost days have never stopped haunting her. Poppy starts having nightmares and blackouts--there are periods of time she can't remember, and she's unable to tell the difference between what is real and what she's imagining. When she begins to sense that someone is following her, Poppy is plunged into a game of cat and mouse, determined to unravel the mystery around her husband's death. But can she handle the truth about what really happened?"

MY REVIEW:
I'm going to keep this short because I wasn't that big of a fan of this book.

I found this book... confusing. I understand that it was supposed to be confusing because we are reading from the Main Character's perspective and she has had a nervous breakdown and is confused. But I also feel like this could have been done without making me feel so confused! (How many times can I say confused/confusing? But seriously, it sums up my reaction.)

I got frustrated with everyone being perfect and rich. Yes, that started to unravel toward the end, but it was too little too late for me. Some sections dragged and I found myself skimming. It just wasn't for me.

MY RATING:
Overall: 2 stars

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review!
