I really don't know what to say about this book I have mixed feelings about it. In the first half I was so invested in but then it became very disturbing ( although it's normal for this kind of books).The wife was very stupid and annoying her husband was a walking red flag and he made me very angry I hated him very much and sylvia was very dumb at the end as why didn't she want to go to the hospital. I wanted to know how it ended but at the same time it was hard to read . I can't say there was a big twist at the end as it was predictable but I was relieved when I finished it . Overall I liked it but I have read better books by Freida.
