The prolougue gives away the ending. The book builds up to it but I wish I didn't know the ending before - it would've been a good, surprising twist. These characters are irritating, haha. Although I think that may be the point. I felt irritated throughout the book, but also sorry for the characters at times too.

If you are triggered by mental illness, do not read this book.
