- fast paced and easy to read writing style with short chapter 
- little bit too much about her drinking, but it showed her mental state clearly  
- good plot twist, I was not expecting (author toyed with readers emotions), - but the ending was not exactly connected to the story, it could have been the ending of any story and you would most likely not expect it
- possible to see into Anna’s thought, through both the writing style and her thoughts

This book is expected and the plot is familiar, but the idea of the story is unique. The plot twist is cool and the character development too.

It was okay. There’s a lot happening and it happens fast. The twists are pretty good overall. Mostly, I just wanted more by the end. More character development, better explain actions, etc.
