0.5
The main character/s are very unlikeable and I hope that this author had a consultant for mental illness, or else she is just using mental illness tropes/notions to write the story she wants. I would have given it a 1 if there wasn't two final "gotcha" moments, one of which doesn't even make sense based on the characterization of the main character/s. I feel I can see the author smirk and say, "Aren't I so clever?" No. You are not.
Her writing is fine, 0.5 stars.
Graphic: Emotional abuse, Fire/Fire injury, Toxic friendship, Gaslighting, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , Injury/Injury detail, Rape, Sexual assault, Sexual violence, Stalking, and Mental illness
Unnecessary sexual assault that is just there for the shock and horror. Nothing comes from it. No emotional fall-out, no relationship fall-out, nothing. It's just there to be vulgar. The book would have had the same message and impact without it since the main tension is not with the character who sexually assaults.lulureading's review against another edition
