This was ... not a good book. Maybe I've read too many evil child stories, but this really has nothing clever or insightful to add to the subgenre. It was so cliche, so unimaginative, so one-note. Maybe if the story had been told only through the mother's perspective, that would give it some nuance and intrigue it just doesnt have, but as is it's a poor caricature of motherhood and a caricature of the child sociopath with no story to tell.
