5.0

really really enjoyable and unique book. the author does a terrific job of immersing us fully into the heroine’s psyche. I think this book does a great job of grasping the mental gymnastics that can occur in a woman’s mind. one of its greatest assets is the ability to make the main characters toxic/crazy behavior seem rational and justified. of course, it’s heavily dramatized, but there are plenty of moments that ring true and plenty of moments that aren’t that far fetched, especially for someone who understands overthinking. this book had me hooked right from the start and I really appreciated the ending too - it really added an extra layer.
