This was a little different from the books I regularly go for. I had this overwhelming, uneasy feeling the entire time but I couldn’t stop reading. I think this may be my fastest read so far this year clocking in at just a few hours.

Written in a series of alternating letters between husband and wife, we get a similar story with different perspectives.

There is a running list in the beginning of the book that serves as a guide to the different pieces that will be used to tell the story- everything from the letters to unedited audio transcripts

I’m still not sure how to rate this disturbing little book (page 210 😳) I can’t help but feel that I missed something along the way and then the book just ended. I have so many unanswered questions and I need answers 😩
