I was confused for 80% of the book and then frustrated after finishing. I spent an hour afterwards researching the book but came away with even more questions. You might enjoy it if you like books that are open-to-interpretation, cliffhanger-y.

Several  open plot hole that I found frustrating. Who is the ex boyfriend? What events caused the main character to loose a relationship with her parents? I liked the overall storyline but it felt like there were missing details

Whoof. What a psychological thriller!! This book really had me to the very end. I don’t think I could’ve guessed what was coming at any point, which is rare for me since I’m usually decent at solving puzzles. Truly so many turns that I actually am still reeling from the ending. 

PS this book should have a TW for sexual assault and rape.
