I listened to this book, and I would recommend it in audiobook form over reading it on page. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. The 2nd-person POV (only one of the perspectives out of the three in this book) wasn’t distracting in the slightest, and it made me feel so much closer to The Woman. The discomfort associated with the attached “you” was crucial to living this story with her. It was heart pounding, disturbing, and hopeful.
