While an allegory concerning abusive relationships to which we all knew the ending, it was an interesting read.

I despised Doug throughout the story

and the effects of his abuse toward Annie linger throughout, so much so that I could feel Annie's anger and pain despite her not being "human."

This book also addresses the objectification of women and the sexualization of women. While I wish it delved deeper into these themes, it was still a compelling read.

I wish the story did a little more with what it was trying to say. Nonetheless, I enjoyed reading about Annie's experience. Pleased 8 out of 10.
