I don't know how I'm supposed to go to sleep after that ending!!! I ran to my laptop to see everyone's reviews!
I'll be honest, 98% of the book is extremely slow, repetitive, and lacks any real substance, besides the fact that this woman is absolutely crazed by the obsession she has over her husband. That girl is COLD. Not just in her marriage, or with her 'friends', but I actually was taken aback by how she felt about her own damn kids.
I did NOT expect that twist in the epilogue. my jaw was DROPPED. It really does put the whole book into a different perspective. THEY BOTH CRAZY. But i'm also like....he's making HER crazy??? I don't know if I should feel bad for her or just hate both of them. Like he really said that he 'marks his territory' when he has s*x with her after she goes off with someone else like......you nasty sir. Maybe she should toss you out the window...
Without the epilogue, I would've definitely rated this lower. Mostly because I didn't enjoy that it was all just her stream of thoughts and not a lot of dialogue or character interaction. I really had to force myself to push through it. I also wouldn't categorize it in thriller or horror, I'd say it's more just dark and psychological.

You think she id awful. Yeah, he made her so. He likes her crazy. Their marriage is a power struggle and its how they like it. I dont liked it. It made me feel anxiety.
