4.0
I gave up on this book twice because it was torture to read another page about Ms. Amber.
However, the second half of the book grasped me deeply. I ate it up. It was emotional and l surprising.
This book could be a 5/5 as a movie. But because I had to gaslight myself into finishing it (since I bought it. And I might as well get through it), it's a 3.25.
I just say, try try again with this book. You'll probably love it in the end.
**edit to add, it's grown on me a bit and I may read it again in the future and disect it. 4.0 for sure lol**
