wow. i got so mind fucked at the end, i’m still processing it.
i loved this book so much, i read it in under two days with a break in the middle, one of my favourites. it’s gripping from start to end and the twists and little connections all make beautiful sense but you wouldn’t see them from a mile away. 10/10 recommend.
it’s weird because both of the settings in this book are near where my childhood home is and where i live now, so it’s strangely comforting having them mentioned in the book.
spoilers?¿
i got a major “she knows” moment when she was telling him what happened and they made eye contact; if this was a movie, i know there’d be a bunch of edits of that moment on tiktok rn.
