Ngl it became a little annoying. We are in the mind of the protagonist the whole fucking time and she's just so incessantly annoying. I get that that's kinda the point. She's an unreliable narrator. I don't really like unreliable narrators so it basically wasn't for me. I was intrigued by the complex sibling relationship so I found the twist lackluster. I don't think it's a bad book, but I'm personally glad it was a short one.
