Did really enjoy this book, and deffo would’ve read quicker if life didn’t get in the way! 
Amazing plot twists, was kinda giving Freida vibes! Deffo gonna give some of his other books a go!
Couldn’t have guessed what was going on, although had a slight feeling she was a lot more crazy than we thought. 
Extremely dark, but kinda loved it, very much intriguing!!
