Not, my favorite Alice Feeny book and the book was pretty slow-paced, but it was still an entertaining read. I read it in a day. The twist at the end was good though.
That rape scene was unnecessary.
She's definitely improved though. I think I'm more keen on her newer books.

Um…. Huh???? Did I devour this book in 1 day? Yes. Did it keep me engaged and wondering? Yes!! Was it unhinged? 1,000x yes!!! I don’t even know where to start. Like, I think it’s one thing to throw some doubt into the plot but the ending was so confusing I immediately googled it and nobody else understood it either. 
It was not satisfying. I think there were too many elements that are left open, some of which just seem unnecessary.

Insaaaaaaaane!!! Sharp objects kind of twists, kept me on my toes the whole time, and the narration was stellar. 
TW: abt ¾ the way through, there is an explicit depiction of r*pe.
