TRIGGER WARNING: RAPE
Want to read a brilliant book? Go read Gone Girl and just ignore this book. The ending definitely bumped it up a star just for creativity points, but the rest of the book just didn't flow well. When I read the description I thought "this sounds great! Why is it not more popular? Why have I never seen it on booktube?!"
Well I'll tell you why. For the first time I understand what people mean when they say, "it was a great idea, but poorly executed." I thought the whole idea of not being sure if he was crazy or not was great. It was a quick read, but it seemed to be a lot of writing going no where. There could have been so much more depth to the story than there was.
What I wasn't prepared for was the sex scenes. I had NO IDEA that was going to be in the book, so I'm warning you now.
Generally, if I like the book, I'll skim over those parts because I really don't want to know all the fictional details; there's a reason I avoided 50 Shades of Gray (Grey? Idk). However, these scenes were like a train wreck I couldn't look away from. I was seriously LAUGHING through them. I even told my husband a couple parts because it was so hysterical, just the way she described things. The book would have been MUCH better without all that non sense. It just didn't add anything to the story.
*SPOILER ABOUT THE ENDING*
If you don't want to know how this ends... Just stop because you will seriously ruin the entire book if you plan on reading it (which I don't recommend anyways).
Now this ending, I should have been absolutely blown away by it. It really was a great twist; the only problem was, I didn't buy it. I didn't buy that she and Lana were the same person the whole time. I could see the points the overlapped and matched up, like the horses and the fact she couldn't ever stay the night with Max, but honestly it just seemed too unbelievable.
Also, I'm still confused about Max. Was he actually Lachlan the whole time? Or was he literally just a figment of her imagination? I think he was Lachlan? Idk.
