This was such a weird book. I was invested the whole time and wanted to know what happened and why everyone was such a freak. It is very open ended though and it is kind of depressing. I do not have bipolar disorder so I don’t know if the representation is good, but from what I know I think it was done fairly well. It was just so sad to me to see how the townspeople treated her. I also loved the asexuality representation in this. Overall I will probably never think of this again, but it was entertaining. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend because it’s just fine(even though I’m giving it a four). This was also sometimes told in a weird way which I didn’t understand. It was like a movie script for no reason for like 4 chapters.
