Writing is a bit choppy but the plot was compelling.

Breathless, fast-paced, and completely unresolved. It’s like the author had no idea how to end this story so she just didn’t bother. In the end, a bit disappointing.

I never really got into the flow of this book - the writing style didn’t super gel with me? The story itself was amazing though!

I remember there being a line that I really loved, but I don't remember the actual line. Guess I'll have to get the book again sometime.

Brilliant novel, great story about which I can't say too much without spoilers. Let's just say you'll never feel the same way about social media again.

I wanted more out of this book and more about Louise specifically. All of the characters felt pretty thinly drawn, but I could excuse that because it was all from Louise's perspective and she's a sociopath. But there were so many things brought up about Louise in the privacy of her own head that sounded interesting, sometimes way more interesting than what was happening in the back half of the story.
