This is the most fucked up, dysfunctional mother/daughter relationship and I'm here for it π π π
Why do parents think that hiding the truth from their kids (their teenage kids at that) is protecting them?! π€
Anyways, I won't say much because it is best to go in blind
But what I will say, is that you will not like any of the characters
You will feel rage for the wrong reasons
the Twists will hit you, especially towards the end
the only thing that I would criticize is the plotholes by the end of the book.
Finally, I wish people like Maggie and Nina were only fictional
Sadly, they are not
