Sucked into it, but couldn’t help but feel that it felt rushed? 

The female protagonists was so reluctant and so negative towards herself that when she finally started opening up it kind of felt like it was overnight, while there were signs of her coming to terms with things and starting to verbally express herself, I think it could’ve been more flushed out.
