I read this in one sitting and literally could not put it down—I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. The best kind of fever dream!

Tense tense tense!! Honestly though this seemed like a pretty basic experience of doing college theater (from the perspective of the actors).

I really liked the exploration of chronic illness/chronic pain in this book. I also liked the theatrical element. Overall, it was a good read. It was unique. I wasn't sure what to expect from the ending, but the ending was satisfying.

Hmm. Odd. But I don’t know enough about All’s Well That Ends Well to dispute this. I will say that I wasn’t a huge fan of the writing style. Lots of repetition and also no one says another persons name that often when speaking to them?? “Hello, Miranda! Miranda, are you okay, Miranda? That’s so weird, Miranda. You’re limping, Miranda.” SHUT UP??
