I would do the same thing if a man dulled my sparkle! 

In all seriousness I thought the plot and character development was very smart and engaging. The only thing better than one unreliable narrator is two! My main critique was pacing; the book was so long I felt like it dragged at points before Nick discovered Amy’s plan. But very happy the cat didn’t die <3
