After finishing the book, my immediate impression was that, although being predictable, I still loved it—but, god, that finale. She is powerless therefore her fiancé can't get through to her. Her mum pushed her down the side of a mountain, breaking her leg, and then she got into a car accident while attempting to flee. She's stuck there with her insane mother and dead dad. After going through all of that in just two days, I'm furious because she deserved a happy ending. What the heck?

This is insane. Very disturbing mother daughter relationship, I just wish it was a bit more creepy earlier in the book, it kind of ramped up very quickly but very easy read, quick enough for one sitting.

This doesn't really feel like an okay novella so much as a great novel with the last act missing.

Note to self: listen to your gut instinct and never get into a car with your emotionally-abusive relatives.
