This book goes back and forth between Quincy's past and present. I found the book to be a slow burn (although I read through it quickly). I found myself speed-reading through the present just to read excerpts from her past.  I wanted to learn about that fateful day and find out her secret plus the guilt from surviving that she was satiating with Xanax. Usually, I am not into characters that "don't have it together", but given her past, I let it go although I did find it kind of annoying at times. I also did not like the relationship dynamic she had with her rescuer and how weirdly intimate it was (which again, given her circumstances makes sense). In all, I didn't find myself super enamored with the story or the character and started liking the story towards the end.
