I enjoyed it! Easy quick read

[Heidi Carpenter · Rating 3 out of 5]

This started out pretty slow and mundane, but picked up some towards the end. It was on the short side, and I feel like the story could of been developed more. The ending itself was ok, with a slight twist.

Much worse work environment than I've ever experienced. Certainly a fitting title for the book. To think it is possible for someone to interfere in another person's life to this extent is believable. Satisfying conclusion.

Not a long novel, I read it in one day. I have to say I did not like the main character too much, just did not identify much with her at all and found her kind of dumb at first in regard to what was happening to her. Did stretch believability here and there too. Decent read though.
