2.0

Was really good but the ending fell flat. I felt like it was rather unneeded and kind of cliched. It didn’t leave me with questions like it was meant to. 
Update (5-15): brought down to 3 stars from originally 4. The more I thought on it, the more I dislike this book. It was enjoyable enough but I still find it very disappointing.

whaaaattt?? 

changing to 3.5 stars cos the ending was kinda underwhelming but still a great book :)

changing back to 4 stars cos i loved reading it and couldn’t put it downnnn

honestly im so confused im leaning towards team manuscript because how could she write that about her own children in such detail and if the manuscript is simply a writing exercise then why didn’t she state that at the beginning? ugh idek
