bethanylou's review against another edition
1.0
This was bad. Super unbelievable plot with a lot of craziness to it. Thrillers are good when you could see something realistically happening to a certain extent. However, this was just a load of nonsense. The topics discussed and the sex elements/obsessions did also make me uncomfortable.
The writing style was too distracting as it was always going into being a “script” so would distract me from the story etc and disrupt any flow it had. The Baudelaire poetry references and focus were also weird to me.
I really hope that the other books I have from the same author start to get better.

The book really got me from the beginning. This is well written, and very psychological wich is a good thing here.
Nevertheless, I was kind of disappointed with the end.

This just wasn't for me, too much suspension of disbelief and the characters were a little over-the-top. I did enjoy the audiobook performance but the story itself was a miss.

Read it in one go! I wouldn’t rate it 5 stars, I don’t love everything about it, but it definitely kept me interested. Lots of twists and turns. I felt confused many times, but that’s part of it. I think the author is very good at making the reader feel the things the majn character is feeling, eg. paranoia, I had no idea what to believe anymore. Definitely a story that will stay with me for a bit. Not happy I finished it at 11pm
