clara_mai's review against another edition
4.0
Overall, this is very suspenseful and well done in terms of mystery, although there are some points that drag on for a bit too long. Through a writing style rich in similes invoking food, nature and darkness a lush atmosphere is created. As the form is allowing Frannie to tell her own story, questions of external vs. internal perception and harmful narratives are discussed in a thought-provoking and challenging way throughout the book.
