3.0

I feel like I read a different ending than everyone else. I’d go back and re read but my library loan expired and I’m not that invested. My takeaway was that

Mary did give Alyssa the pills that resulted in her death, inadvertently or not. But my impression was that it was accidental; a case of a child not knowing how to care for an infant. The bleach in the coffee paints a different picture but I feel Mary can be both a psychopath and someone who accidentally killed a baby in her care.

Anyway, mostly enjoyable. A solid “not bad” read.
