I had such high hopes. It builds and builds and you think, "wow, how are they going to get out of this?" And then it builds and builds and builds. Then the book ends. If this was the first book in a trilogy then great! But sadly no...
Also, there were multiple moments where I flicked to the front cover after thinking, "this was definitely written by a man..." The main character acts like an incel's fantasy woman sometimes and not at all like a normal human being. At least I can watch the film now.
