I was really strongly anticipating this book and i have to say especially the ending delivered some of the feelings i was looking for. I felt my own inner struggles with justice strongly reflected and got something out if that. 

Unfortunately i feel like im not exactly the target audience. The voice felt like it was specifically talking to true crime consumers and i dont take in a lot of that stuff. 

The writing style was sometimes beautiful, but it felt too similar in the parts between Saffy and Hazel. I felt like they should have been more different as people.
