This book destroyed me.
I cared a lot about this woman and I sometimes despised her. Sometimes I wished she could be happy, and sometimes I was angry at her. Most of the time I loved her with my whole heart, despite her flaws and how wrong she was.
I loved how the author brought this woman to life without giving her a name. She felt so human. I also loved how shorts the chapters were, that allowed me to read the book faster than expected because I couldn't put the book down.
The last few pages were hard to read and made me really emotional.
