the loveline was a little too insta-lovey for me to truly get invested in them, but
the truth about what happened to fisher was actually so horrifying, and are we to assume the dad died in the fire??
i felt like i was losing my mind i think the author did a good job of keeping us on our toes, as i didnt know where this was going to go and most of my guesses were wrong. however, the ending did feel a bit rushed it was like i was suddenly getting information launched at me from all angles cascading into an all-consuming explosion and then it was just over and somehow we still got a happy ending? i have my complaints but the fast moving story, strong imagery, and imagination throughout the book override my negative feelings about that
