This book is a rather twisted tale, but I felt that the portrayal of the protagonist was lacking in some depth. I just didn’t feel what was driving her to the actions she took. Maybe she was just a psychopath, but I didn’t get that from the text either. Otherwise, this was well written and entertaining. 3.5 ⭐️
A deeply disturbing, yet fascinating, study of a woman's descent into madness and immorality. Highly reminiscent of Charlotte Perkins Gilman's short story The Yellow Wallpaper and William Oldroyd's period drama Lady Macbeth.
"To my mind, we carry all that we need to survive, indeed to live well, in our heads and our hearts from birth. We must decide our own paths accordingly and individually. There is precious little other instruction available."
