this was actually really interesting!! this is a novel and not a narrative as i’m used to reading for this course, but the shock and suspense i felt was all the same, towards the end i was aching to know what would happen

It’s was good , however, ending was very abrupt 🙃 so I’m not sure — honestly I don’t know how I feel about the book as a whole.
