My favourite bits in the book:

The book is written cleverly to mirror the mind of state Vikki is in and at times confuses the reader as much as she would have been.

My least favourite bits in the book:

The ending because the ending was left open and made me wish I had the next book already.

Any further books in the series? Any more planned by this author?

This is the second book I’ve read by this author.
