Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC!
This one left me with a bittersweet feeling after I ended my read. With the way the story Is told, in a non linear way, and Abby foreshadowing events that she hasn't told us yet, the whole read has a bittersweet taste.
I like and dislike the use of the first person narrator in the novella for the same reasons: It leaves me with the feeling that Abby Is not a completely reliable narrator. I don't really have reasons to feel this way yet in the back of my mind I have the feeling that some of Nora crimes/actions aren't real or didn't happen as she recollected them. It gives the story a dreamlike feel, like other have said before, but I kinda wanted a more straightforward retelling of Nora's actions, because she's such an interesting characters.
I think the story had more to tell and this could have been a liitte longer, but at the same time it doesn't feel incomplete nor rushed. It was a very good debut imo.
