3.5
I liked the premise and the world but overall it was disappointing. I expected there to be commentary on who's the actual monster but everything was laid so simply that I felt there was such a missed opportunity. Kate's reason for hating her mother and her personality wasn't explained that well other than she just... misremembers the incident? it felt like an excuse to make her an almost unhinged unstable mc. there was no romance, but I'd dislike forced feelings more so I didn't mind how it was handled. the story also just goes over so quickly and around the same group of people that it felt too simple.
