If you enjoy watching a woman being gaslit and manipulated by nearly everyone around her, this book might be for you. Personally, I found it incredibly frustrating—there were moments I genuinely wanted to throw my Kindle out the window just to escape the endless mind games and overwhelming naivety. The sibling relationship is strange and, at times, outright unsettling. At certain points, I couldn’t help but notice faint echoes of the Rapunzel fairy tale—but more as a personal observation than a deliberate connection. The ending took a rather unexpected turn—whether I liked it or not, I’m still unsure. It certainly stood out from the rest of the story, but whether it redeemed the experience is debatable. Overall, the book left me with mixed feelings: it’s intriguing in concept, but emotionally exhausting in execution.
