This genuinely may be the worst book I’ve ever read. The writing, ending, character development, and story are just bad. It was the kind of bad that may be cringe and sigh with disappointment more than once. I unfortunately cannot recommend this book to anyone I want a cordial relationship with.

This is an easy, quick read.
The ending was rushed.
It's basically a sort of mind fucking plot. But it isn't because a lot of it was predictable. I also found the setting wasn't clear and strange, as well as the plot having too many holes.

The cheating husband was an asshole. But he didn't deserve this ending.

Normal people would just divorce.

But I get it. I do.

Yet, it is just psychopathic.
The wife killed the misstress and framed her husband for it.
Her partner, who she ends up having a kid with and marrying a day after her husband's execution, also crazy

Up until the last hour everything felt rushed and chaotic. But that last hours in the story with the "plot"twist was rushed and just sick. 

Lastly this felt like a low budget bad murder mysterie show.
