- fast paced and easy to read writing style with short chapter 
- little bit too much about her drinking, but it showed her mental state clearly  
- good plot twist, I was not expecting (author toyed with readers emotions), - but the ending was not exactly connected to the story, it could have been the ending of any story and you would most likely not expect it
- possible to see into Anna’s thought, through both the writing style and her thoughts

This book is really quick to read and has lots of twists and turns along the way to keep you guessing. The “reveals” don’t come all at once. Several times I was shocked because I didn’t see it coming!
