I enjoyed the plot, and the main character was written so vividly. Really liked the mystery too, and how it developed.
Also super recommend for vegans and/or people into astrology.
My only complaint is that, while the plot was engrossing, it never really evoked any emotions from me.

the final few chapters of the book finally furthered the plot and the unreliable narration!Graphic: Schizophrenia/Psychosis , Physical abuse, Grief, Chronic illness, Mental illness, Medical content, Animal cruelty, Animal death, and Murder

not only was it predictable, but the lengthy, detailed description of exactly how and why the murderer killed the people they did was unnecessary and annoying. There are enough layers to the story that just a brief reveal of why they did it would’ve brought the threads together nicely, no need to spoon-feed the reader.Graphic: Death, Murder, Animal death, and Violence
