Case Study by Graeme Macrae Burnet

dark medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? It's complicated

The use of the ‘note book’ and the analysis of the notebook were fun.The mystery hidden in the pages created a hypnotic  atmosphere until the 60% mark, where it got reptitive. I enjoyed the writing. It felt very posh. It seems like the main character is getting lost in made-up lies, while searching for the cause of the death of her sister. We saw her turn into the case study, by reading her journals. There was a thin line between what is deal and imagination. The main character had a mean streak and wants to stir things up in her life by lying, which in the end made a mess of her life. However ı foundfe it hard to care about why she is doing all of this. The “non-fiction” parts about her therapist seemed like they belonged in a whole other book, but i guess i liked reading them
