This is a book that makes you want to scream at the main character. There are so many red flags from the beginning that you want to shake Miller into her senses. But more than that, you know things are going to go badly, but you really want to find out HOW badly they will go. It's a short, fast paced story that will have you holding your breath until you turn that last page. However, I would've liked it to be a little longer simply because I struggled to connect with Miller in the beginning. It was difficult to understand her motivations for making such obviously bad decisions because we were dropped in after the decisions were made.
