I hated the narrator from the beginning- she's wildly unlikeable and unreliable.  The plot was fine, quick pace and makes you want to know what's next.  I started and finished this in a day.  Honestly, the ending blew this for me- it was random, made absolutely NO sense, and was very rushed (like, last 5-10 pages).
