I personally really enjoyed it and I really wanted to keep reading. I liked how the narration of the stories of the two characters are intertwined. I would’ve liked to know what Rebecca ends up doing afterwards but I imagine that leaving us guessing is part of the charm of the book.
Also, the book left me wondering if it was a true story until the end. Like, so many references to real people and places!
