I did. not enjoy the twist, definitely killed the story for me. Made it hard to rank the book. I like Alice feeney as an author but this just wasn’t it.

extraggie's review against another edition

He was sort of stagnant and the main character is so shallow even though she’s supposed to have lived very traumatic events blah blah blah.

secretsoup's review against another edition

It’s super uncomfortable to read, and just disjointed enough to have me not buy into the actual plot. It relies completely on shock value of these uncomfortable situations rather than crafting a compelling narrative. So i went to find spoilers and discovered that the twist was extremely stupid and dispiriting, and, you guessed it, uncomfortable/gross.
