Oh. My. GOSH! 
Okay, honestly, I figured this was going to just be some fiction or women's fiction or whatever type book. I was NOT expecting this super creepy, gross thriller type... I'M calling it a thriller because iiiiiii was skeeved the entire facking time. 🙈 To ME it was thrilling... like hand-to-mouth, forehead smacking, shouting NO at the characters type thrilling. 
Anyway, family drama is putting it lightly.... lol. Check triggers if you have any, I was hooked pretty early on.  It starts out in Sally's present and it's almost humorous in a slightly disturbing scenario, so I was NOT expecting the book to take the path it did... it also shares a different POV that starts in the past and merges to the present to help tell Sally's past. 
The whole thing was REALLY well done. I was shocked. And grossed out. And angry. And sad. And then grossed out again. 🤣 
DEFINITELY worth checking out.
