Objectively, this is the best book that I have read from Tiffany Jackson. As far as pacing goes at least. But the timeskips were disorienting and the content was abhorrent (but intentionally so). It was incredibly difficult to listen to, and incredibly difficult to think about. While the plot twist was shocking (and more well written than Grown/Allegedly), I was frustrated with
the fact that her amnesia was two years of lost memory? And that she was actively out in society/school? Usually cases that are that severe are in intense therapy and guidance to assist the victim, rather than shield them... so this wasn't believable to me. Had it been several months of amnesia? Maybe. But over a year? Two years?? Not as believable.
