This one was okay. I felt like it was really really unbelievable. This was just so far-fetched, I don’t know if I could get on board with majority of this novel. Don’t get me wrong, it was entertaining, but it wasn’t a favorite or anything.

This was a lot darker than I expected, and perhaps not the best book to read just a couple months postpartum. Postpartum anxiety comes up in the book as well as a lot of other, darker ideas and themes. That being said, it was well written, interesting, and I was dying to know how it ended.
