To begin with I wasn’t enjoying this as much as the first two books in the Dollanganger series, but by the end I was rather enthralled. Bart’s character truly infuriated me, and reminded me a lot of Kevin in We Need To Talk About Kevin. I think he’s good proof that no matter how much love and affection you put upon a child, they can still easily become radicalised by those around them.
I’m interested to see where this story goes next. I can’t see Bart becoming a nicer character from what is implied in the epilogue, but I am curious about Cindy’s character, and how she’ll grow to become.
