Frieda LOVES a last page plot twist, and the one here was very good.
I definitely had some theories throughout, but I didn't actually manage to solve what was going on until right before the main character did.
Again, I don't love the main characters this author tends to write and think they are sort of clueless and have no sense of self-preservation, but I didn't think Amy was nearly as bad as some I've read.

The moment a character found out one of the patients had a cat and loved them, and then referred to the tired, misogynistic & ableist “crazy cat lady” stereotype, I *knew* I’d hate this book.
Then fatphobia shortly after? Second strike Frieda!!!!!! 🔪
Lastly????? Mental health representation was beyond problematic. Disrespectfully, fuck this book. Third strike and you are OUT, babyyyyyyy ⚾️🧢🏟️
