3.0

This book is okay for the most part, but in some places, the writing quality goes down. Certain parts are slightly confusing. Sometimes, the narrator goes out of character, but it's not too bad. Edna has some mental illness.
I'm not sure what Robert sees in her.
Also, there is a lack of details, especially at the abrupt end.
Edna's suicide is really pathetic
