I seriously loved Amy after we find out she’s behind it all. It just feels like a good for her story even if she acts a little neurotic. Also loved how the misogyny in this story was portrayed (just hear me out). We see these nasty men calling women “stupid bitch” but the women keep winning in the end. I didn’t care how much of it was made up I still fucking hate Nick. If he wasn’t a prick this wouldn’t be happening.Overall what a fantastic read that lives up to all the hype. Now I just need to watch the movie

Nick is codependent child with daddy issues and Amy is a narcisist with mommy issues that still has beef with a fictional alterego and her seven unborn older sisters. Honestly, neither of them is fit to be a parent.Go was always the voice of reason and Nick should have been fully honest from the start with her and heed her advice.
Also good ridance to the Elliots, those two should've never been parents and their seven unborn daughters dodged quite the bullet of having such passive-agressive a**hole of parents who wanted a robot, not a child. The irony of them being child psychologists who wrote those awful Amazing Amy books, which I bet my life did more harm than they ever did good to a whole generation.
Spoiler
This is also the only point I concede to Amy, her parents not only built an empire on her back, but also inmortalized every little dissapointment and failure so that she could never forget them.Graphic: Toxic friendship, Emotional abuse, Gaslighting, Self harm, Stalking, and Toxic relationship

The first half was kind of slow or didn't keep my attention as well as the second half when it switches from diary Amy to Amy's POV, though actual Amy is way scarier and frustrating than "diary Amy".Graphic: Domestic abuse, Gaslighting, Misogyny, Sexual content, Toxic relationship, Emotional abuse, Infidelity, and Blood
