Good story, good narrator

Wasn’t sure I would like the switching between times (then & now) but it wasn’t an issue. Author did a great job and it was interesting to learn about how the story started for them.

I enjoyed this book there's sadness and heartache

I loved the story, although the main character was in a Looney bin, she did not belong there. It ends with a happy ending.
I would recommend it to people who enjoy reading a book with a good story line

Great story

Thos story is suspenseful and songiod. I was knots throughout the entire story, anticipating what's going to come next for this girl. I liked the ending being a happy one.

not impressed

I didn't think it was a thriller at all. it just went on and on and took forever to get to the point. which I had already figured out.

So many mixed emotions

So I hated this book and couldn't put it down, except when I had to because I couldn't take anymore. Then I had to know what happened next and picked it back up again. There were times I was so angry and times I was less angry. There was some drag and repetition in inner dialogue but not enough to push me away. This book would have had 5 stars if it weren't for the ending. It all worked until it didn't. This is another author who had to twist just one too many times. Either end twist would have been ok, just not both at the same time.
