Did not finish book.
DNF at 25% just thought this was a snooze fest. The writing style was way too descriptive for me and I didn’t connect with any of the characters.

4 stars. I really enjoyed this book. I could not put it down. I love books where the main characters have some sort of a psychological disorder. I find it so interesting. Although our main character was less than likable, I still couldn’t help but feel soooo sad for her through the whole story. I was so sympathetic towards her. Although I didn’t predict the ending, I wasn’t obsessed with it.
