I wish there were 1/2 stars because I really can only give this book 3.5 stars.

I love this author omg

Loved the ending & the beginning, especially the way concept of Alcestis fits. Although main characters' relations were kinda far fetched but a brilliant read!

Wtf! What a thrill ride and real page turner! I had a raised eyebrow for just about every character and still never would have predicted this ending!

“But why does she not speak?” The comparisons and explanation for Alcestis was probably my favorite thing in this story, something that remained constant and made you think.

Alicia Berenson was condemned to death by her husband like Alcestis and then shot him 5x in the face and stayed silent because she “had nothing to say”!! Cold!

This book has the best, most unexpected twist I've ever read. It was well-paced and shocking. I loved this book and would kill to read it again for the first time.
