god damn this book. i give it a 4 because at times i was not a fan of the writing style because the poetic tone didn’t make sense in anna’s dialogue to me. but i understand how that adds a— with lack of a better term— mysterious aura to the book. also, at one point i found myself sick of the bread crumbs of information we got regarding the overarching mystery. however when it picked up… boy did it pick up. my jaw was slack for most of late part 3 and part 4 😭. the twists came one after another and i was genuinely surprised as i decided to sit back and let the story show me instead of trying to figure out the mystery myself. overall with layered characters, an interesting storytelling format, a host of twists and turns, and attention to detail, this was a gripping story about (vague spoilers)
how sometimes our stories can intertwine in ways we would never imagine.
