I almost DNFed Monday's Not Coming because it was very slow at the beginning. It seemed like Claudia was obsessed with her best friend, despite not having romantic feelings for her. That was a red flag, but as I continued listening / reading, I began to understand their relationship better.

It was still slow at the beginning and not much held my interest. However, the last half of the book flew by. Once the groundwork was laid, Jackson was able to really dive into the plot and reveal how fucked up Monday's home life was. These are things that will give you chills and make you clench your teeth.

The ending was predictable in my opinion (not the details, but the gist). Although, there was a twist that completely took me off guard; I had to rewind my audio to make sure I understood it correctly. I was not expecting to cry because of the predictability, but aspects of the ending really got me.

One of my favorite things about Jackson's writing is that she doesn't assume you're stupid as a reader. She doesn't spell things out for you, which adds depth to the novel's message.
