Wow. I spent the entirety of the book thinking I’d know how it would end because I saw the movie. I was wrong. Like violently wrong in a way that has be concerned for the author. After all that Anna did, she fucking died randomly. She finally got what she wanted and so did Kate. And then she dies bro I can’t imagine how the judge feels. Ohmygod, what if it was a drunk driver. She was always destined to give her a kidney. I can’t do this anymore.
