dark sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix

• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

This is one of the most gut wrenching books I have ever read. Just about every twist and turn absolutely wrecked me, and my heart broke for Annie with every chapter. 

I'd give anything to read it for the first time again, ngl.

Wow. This book was incredible. It grabbed my attention from the first page and didn’t let go until I read the last word. I’m sure I’ll think of this book in the days to come. 

I loved how the narrative was laid out  and how the characters were well-developed. 

I can’t wait to read more from this author. 

Also, make sure to check out the content warnings before reading!
