4.5 stars! read this on a whim at the recommendation of one of the attorneys at my work and ended up really enjoying it! it definitely made me anxious as heck at times bc i am a paranoid parrot and could never even dream of doing half the things jolene did lol but i genuinely had such a great time in between these pages. i also feel like this reading experience will stick with me for a long time bc it was the first time in ages that i have found out about a book, picked it up from the library, and read it all within the same 24 hour span. so memorable! so fun!

edit--my glowing review notwithstanding, i feel like i do need to say: while i had a great time overall with this one, it definitely has a much heavier tone than my glowing review & the cover may lead you to believe. definitely tread with caution if you're sensitive to any of the content warnings i've listed below
