I did like this book but it could be the last chapter and that’s all. However, it was cool to have it told from an outside perspective until that last chapter.

The conflict between two different minds sharing one body was intriguing. This look at split personalities in the 1800s highlights the shame and pain of living uncontrollably, at a time where so much was unknown in that area. Although it was unfortunate, the battle for the body was captivating on both sides, especially with such starkly different morals and goals when hosting the physical form.
