G O O D . 
I was hooked, all I kept thinking about was coming back to read this amazing book. 
It's so real. Too real. 
Brought up a lot of emotions, anger, frustration, empathy. 
I could sadly relate to too many aspects of the book. 
The inner monologue - self blaming, denial, comparison and so much more, is too accurate to people who suffer a relationship with narcissistic and manipulative people. 
The plot itself was also very gripping and enthralling. 
I thought about so many different twists, but not this one. 
Amazing, amazing book.

Fun mystery, in that it's sort of not a "whodunnit" but a "wait who did they kill."
