Even if the book wasn't what I expected from it and wasn't quite my type I still have to say, that I found it very "entertaining" and read it almost in one go. The way Cassandra connected her reality with the opinions and perceptions of others was very fascinating and creative and the writingstyle of the story (newspaper articles, excerpts of a psycological book written about Cassandra, the idea of her heirs reading her/this manuscript) conviced me to go on reading.
Although, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone easily, as the "real" or even the mythical aspects of the story can be quite distressing. I guess this is a book which finds its audience and not something you just give someone as a birthday present.

It’s a deep dive into psychosis that feels so real. Cassie’s life and imagined details are so vivid and its always clear exactly where they stem from. The Faerie world in this book is so rich and scary. Not going to lie, it really freaked me out. This book was scary, deep, and I flew through it. Overall, I really, really liked it.
