This is a slow burn speculative thriller that will leave you going "Wait what?" at every chapter. While it is a bit slow to start, once we begin following Nella through her journey in the publishing industry and competition with Hazel, it definitely heats up. This book definitely served up the gaslighty vibes of When No One Is Watching (another book I loved), before just going WAY out into left field. The thing about speculative fiction though is that there's always a grain of possibility there and I could imagine the plot of this book actually taking place. Overall I loved it, but it may not be for everyone.
