Gripping, emotionally devastating — hey, listen. I know these words are thrown around for novels like this, but it’s true! The whole last 100 pages had my eyes swelling, with that painful hum of oncoming tears behind them. It’s a well-written, creepy, tense book that has a delicate heart underpinning everything.

This book genuinely surprised me. I'm not entirely sure what I expected, but it wasn't to be holding back tears at work. Emma is such a good main character. You hate her and love her on every page. 

I'll never recover for the love I have for Earl.

One of my biggest pet peeves for books is when children speak like adults. The book falls into this a few times, but it's such a bizarre story and tone that I barely cared. Every content warning you can imagine, so proceed with caution.

a weird book narrated by a deeply unlikeable character! this didn't quite hit for me but I appreciate the intensity
(and I'm glad I read it so I don't have that eye looking at me from my tbr anymore)
