0.25
The main content warning I would like to add is that this book is a huge waste of time.
Edit:
Changed from 0.5 stars to 0.25 after putting more thought into the book.
To paraphrase another review, I'm getting tired of books with awful mental illness representation being marketed as psychological thrillers. The "twist" was the most unoriginal garbage I've ever had the displeasure of reading. I no longer will be taking recommendations from people that have liked this book. Mental illness is not a plot device, Iain.
