i read this in two sittings and felt like i was on crack the whole time. i kinda guessed the plot twist, but just because i knew there was one. still, i liked how the author makes use of an unreliable narrator. a solid 4 stars!

I did not expect the plot twist at all and really enjoyed it, once I figured out that plot twist I enjoyed the book a lot more.

Die Art und Weise, wie das Buch geschrieben wurde, gefällt mir sehr. Allgemein habe ich das Gefühl bekommen, dass dieses Buch für mich alleine geschrieben wurde. Die Teile des Buchs haben mich alle auf ganz unterschiedlicher Art und Weise berührt. Selbst den großen Twist konnte ich nicht vorhersehen. Die Leserin war fantastisch. Im Endeffekt ist das Buch doch sehr traurig - es hat mich zum weinen gebracht. Den zweiten Teil würde ich aber nicht lesen wollen. Ebenso wenig kann ich mir vorstellen, das Buch noch einmal zu lesen.

I have so much to say about this and nothing to say about this at the same time. Just like, why would you write this? It wasn’t terrible, I just don’t know what the intention was here.

What the heck!? This book has been on my TBR since last year and truth be told, I didn’t think I’d like it! Instead I DID NOT want to put the book down. The plot, the writing and the characters made for a story that was attractive and entertaining!
