Somehow in the 2020s we are still being given media that demonises metally ill, sexual assault survivors. I can't stress strongly enough that sexual assault does not make you crazy and/or should not be used as an excuse for harmful actions. Mentally ill people have been shown time and time again in media that they are dangerous and unpredictable- this is such a damaging and incorrect portrayal of mental illness.
This critique hasn't even consider (in detail) the poorly developed narrative voice, the lack of tension and "thriller" aspects, and awful pacing.
I am so throughly disappointed with this book. I was actually brought to tears by how much this book frustrated me.

Considering how well I thought Day handles topics like motherhood and infertility, I was disappointed with her treatment of mental health issues. Not so into mental health problems being used as plot twists.
