Dark book, I liked it specifically because I felt like there was no desire for the reader to like or dislike the Tiffani. I love reading "unlikeable" female characters. I find them uniquely complex.

What horrible characters in this book! I suppose they weren’t meant to be likable, but I would have liked at least one likable person.

I was hoping for some sort of redemptive arc for TiffAni), as far as her development from a kid to an adult, but that was not the case. I got through a third of the book and almost quit. Glad I finished it, but the ending was underwhelming.

🦉What started like Gone Girl escalated so fast to something completely unexpected, touching very important topics, from

rape to bullying

and whatnot, and that 200 pages towards the climax plot twist got me completely by surprise.

I had to read twice to figure out what exactly happened at the cafeteria. DID NOT see that coming.

And yes, it IS one of those great stories that you can't put down until you get to the end.

Even though you finally find out what happens, there are untangled knots that you want to loosen up, so, you end up reading till you know for sure that it has ended.

A very realistic read.
