This book wasn't as twisted and scary as I hoped it would be. Still a captivating and addictive read, although some things did not make sense at all. Why wouldn't Verity write a disclaimer in the beginning of the manuscript or talk to Jeremy about the new writing exercise? Also no doctor or specialist or nurse could tell that she was faking her injuries for months? No one was even a little bit suspicious - seems weird to me.
The twist didn't really shock me because I kind of anticipated it (of course not exactly but in a similar way). I still liked the twist, but the way the author explained it felt anticlimactic the letter was too detailed, too long and I didn't have to figure out anything by myself
In the end the reader still doesn't know what is the truth and what is the lie, which I personally enjoyed, but this open ending definitely isn't for everyone.
