Not going to lie I was super excited when I saw that Never Saw Me Coming was on sale because I have been wanting to read this book since it first came out last year. It had me at a group of "psychopaths" being murdered and Chloe wanting to kill Will.
At first it started out strong like I was on the fence about Chloe (let's face it I still am even after finished reading it), I adored Charles and Andre (and kept my fingers and toes crossed that Andre did not get killed due to his being Black. I won't say if he does or not because that would be a massive spoiler). I also loved how the author played with different types of psychopaths and one of them was faking being one which made me laugh because they did not realize what they had signed up for.
My main issue is that Chloe's whole character is based off of killing Will and she did not have much substance past that. I also do not love that there was all this build up and when it finally gets to the big things it was so anticlimactic that I forgot this was the huge things that it was building up to. I felt like the author knew where she wanted to go, but not how to end the big things. It felt rushed the finales of the massive things. It was kind of a let down.
I will give the author props though because like the title you will never see the killer coming because they get little page time compared to most characters (there now you have three people to try to figure out who it is).
The book was good, but it took me a lot longer to get through because I struggled with Chloe especially the reason why Will has to die and it is her revenge. Why couldn't she have normal revenge and completely destroy his life without killing him? Like wouldn't that be more satisfying? Also, it is really easy to get on Chloe's kill list.
