I loved everything about this book except the ending. I REALLY wanted it to be different!! But all in all a fantastic read if you enjoy very good character development with some mystery and thriller thrown in.

As someone who writes about mental health I thought I knew a lot about BPD but this book taught me so much more! I also felt that Newman’s approach to the topic was relatable and engaging, helping readers to better understand a very misunderstood diagnosis.

Great book if you love family drama and strong character development. Reminds me of J. Courtney Sullivan.
