What.a.weird.book!!! But listen, I kind of liked it. It was different, it was refreshing and it was funny (mostly). All because of Abby's thoughts and internal monologue. I liked the writing too, altough it took me a bit in the beginning to get used to it. 
Also, Abby's unhinged thoughts were very disturbing 😅. I feel like the book had a great start, then there was a part that was a bit slow for me after the 70% mark, but then something crazy happened towards the end that had me like...wtf 😳?

⚠️  As always, make sure to check the trigger warnings for this book if you think it may disturb you. There's suicide in it, depression, false pregnancy, thoughts of miscarriage, jealousy of someone pregnant, murder, cannibalism.
