Total target book (iykyk). Main character doesn't grow, the last 20 pages dragged on and had no plot relevance (
should have ended the book after she left the mental asylum
), tons of potential but fell so hard. It was a quick read that i read in probably 3 hours. The middle was hella interesting and my favorite part. None of the characters were remarkable and the main character was so annoying. Also that epilog pissed me off so badly and was lazy horrible writting.
either commit to the idea of your character having a happy ending or a tragic one, you can't have both?????!!!!
It suck cause the first part was so good and the way the character started her drug abuse was so well crafted but the overall book overshadowed that for me.....
