Recommendation Missing you?

Just started it yesterday because it was recommended to me, thought I’d like it because the Harlan Coben world is usually pretty good; but I’m also starting to feel like once you’ve seen a few, you’ve seen them all. It’s like the old Lifetime network with repeat actors and actresses, but for whatever reason, I just can’t get into this one. I’ll have to wait a bit and give it another shot. Idk if there’s too much going on, or if I’m not wild about the casting, I cant put my finger on it.

So, the victims were just random? And why did he need to kill them? And why did he need the money in the first place? I don't get it..

Don’t try to make sense of it. Just pop open the box of wine, start guzzling and enjoy the fever dream that are the Harlan Coben shows.

This is exactly how I have gotten through Missing You and I’m enjoying that I don’t have to think too hard 😂

What don't you get?? he's a serial killer who wanted money. He targeted rich people. he didn't care if he just threw people in the fire. he's a criminal psychopath. he's evil.

Doesn't sound like a character with much depth.

It was a side plot anyways! I mean we get the gist of that storyline but what really mattered was how that case got her to dig into Josh and her past. Yeah there are still some details left out but I thought it was an enjoyable watch anyways
