What just happened?? What? I don’t even know how to process this, I was on board until the middle. 
this had so much potential to be cool if it just got proofread a bit and maybe didn’t steal the plot twist. the whole ending i wanted to slap him for being so annoying. i audibly complained so often that my mom had to ask me to be quiet, but it was a fun, quick read, but check trigger warnings!

when they introduced the whole matrix thing i was so disappointed
