 I've been putting off reading this for months, and I'm extremely mixed about it. Lori, the main character, must be the most unpleasant or wicked person in the novel. Her style of thinking and saying things was unpleasant and irritated me, but she eventually got what she deserved. She was extremely delusional. It was so infuriating because I couldn't picture a real person thinking this way, but the truth is that people do think this way. Despite her being so irritating, I thoroughly enjoyed the book.
