Publisher's summary

From the bestselling author of Drunk Mom comes a story of romantic obsession, mental illness, and self-discovery as one woman travels to a haunted quarantine island.

Josephine is obsessed. Or possessed—by unrequited love for a younger man who doesn't promise anything, but who gives her a taste of intimacy that puts her on the brink of losing her mind. Oscillating between her elusive lover and her older former partner, stuck in the hell that is working in a cubicle, and obliged to tend to her destructive, senile mother, Josephine is trapped.

After a work assignment promises to deliver distraction, Josephine makes a decision to visit a former quarantine island in the Adriatic Sea, where she meets an enigmatic, beautiful man with a haunting story. Intimate and erotic, Possessed is a dark and funny story exploring sexual obsession, mental illness, and the supernatural.

Contains mature themes.

the narrator repeats whole paragraphs of the book

I think that the author is talented, however she does shock writing.
I am concerned about the narration many times during the course of the book the narrator repeats whole paragraphs, then goes back and reads the same paragraph. I'm unsure if the book is written this way or the narrator forgot what they read and goes back in and repeats the same paragraph, the book made me feel insane when it did that and not a pleasurable experience.
I got through the book, but I had to skip ahead when the same paragraphs kept being read again and again!
