The beginning of the novel was particularly difficult to read through, it felt like I was reading a badly written diary that didn't quite know where it was going. The plot did get better and the last 50 or so pages made some sense after learning about the background of the character, however this did lead to a disappointing ending that felt a bit thrown away. The plot became repetitive after the author started repeating ideas, just under different character names. It's a pity the book wasn't well written as I think the idea had potentially, just could have been executed better.
