The Good:
- Main character is flawed
- Loved the sick weird stuff she kept doing
- Main character's backstory is relatable (?) or at the very least it makes you understand her better
- The characters are all tied together in a complex way
- No huuuuge plot twists but there is one good one
The Bad:
- It could/should have been trimmed. There are too many extra details that I don't feel like they are necessary for either advancing the plot nor fleshing the characters out.
- I'm unsure where the "climax" of the story is, if there is one. I guess the bathroom scene could be a climax, but it didn't feel very dramatic?
- The ending was okay, decent, but left me wanting a bit more drama
Content Warnings
Graphic: Stalking
Moderate: Sexual assault, Toxic relationship, and Child death

This book is a special kind of unhinged. Think "You" but less stabby stabby more bat guano cray. It was delightfully disturbing though a bit drawn out and solely focused on the unstable FMC.
Content Warnings
Graphic: Stalking and Mental illness
Moderate: Drug use
Minor: Sexual assault, Child death, and Murder
This is a dark thriller that can be potentially triggering for some.
