Emma is living in isolation. The only company she has is her dog and a neighbor she plays hangman with through their windows with binoculars. When the neighbor suggests she read a book, she is shocked by how much she dislikes it. She puts up a 1-star review and the author immediately responds. When she starts feeling someone in the room with her while she sleeps and thinks there is someone outside she wonders if she pushed the author too far. 

This was so fast-paced. I read this book in 1 day! It's been a while since I just took in a whole book in a day. The only reason it's not a 5-star for me is I saw one of the plot twists coming and I think it was supposed to be a shocking one.
