This did not feel like a novella. I read it in one night, and stayed up late to stare at my ceiling. This book is so incredibly underhyped and I blame the marketing.

If you are expecting a romance novel, DO NOT READ THIS BOOK with that expectation. 

This book is a thriller. It's a mystery. And perhaps it is because of my misguided expectation, but I was thoroughly messed up. (In a good way...?)
