While the middle of this book was a bit of a slog, the final act tied it together nicely, and I was left feeling like I'd witnessed a real tragedy. It was hard to be annoyed after Abbott's poetic revelations. However, I do wish the ending gave just a little more.
This line will continue to haunt me: "There's a reason ... you feel so comfortable ... with the mice, and the rats."

Extremely slow-moving plot, a lot of boring navel-gazing of the Sylvia Plath Tumblr quotes women-are-insane-because-of-blood variety. Implication that people with mental illnesses are dangerous and can only help people by dying.Â
