This book gave me so many emotions from start to finish. Audrain writes gripping story of motherhood, mental health, and adultery.
This book does a great job handling the first person POV. It was interesting reading from a first person‘s point of view that included the character being an , unreliable source. Readers are left questioning whether or not the daughter Violet is truly evil or if this is all overly exaggerated due to the underlining issues, the main character is going through.
