Laura P. (hemmputnam) reviewed on 9/6/2021 + 1120 more book reviews

I think I should have read the reviews before forcing myself to finish this one so I would know who the killer was. I was hoping for eerie tidbits about historical medical and mental health treatments, but none of that shows up until Chapter 79 and it's so terrible I'm hoping it's not true. I never connected with the main character. I feel like I'm pretty good at the willing suspension of disbelief in most of my reading life, but I just couldn't manage it for this book. I realize we all have issues to deal with, but I wanted to yell, "Stop doubting yourself!" at Elin more than once.
