i’ve finally reached the start of act three. millie is a person of interest in the killing of mr garrick. wendy told the police that millie was having an affair with her husband. brock (still a stupid ass name) breaks up with millie after being told about her prison record and the evidence of an affair. millie wants to call enzo but won’t.

so is the book trying to say that enzo ratted millie out? that’s literally insane. it’s so stupid that millie is debating between brock and enzo, especially if frieda is painting enzo as a rat.

so wendy is how millie got hired… that feels obvious. i think brock is the reason xavier is in jail for drugs. i’m assuming that millie and wendy make it to the farm, but that’s where the first scene takes place. douglas finds out and tries to kill millie and wendy and the old friend. that’s all i have so far.

millie is not a girl’s girl like she thinks she is. dating enzo is a bit of a cop out. the downstairs neighbor, xavier, is stalking millie. that’s it.

the book finally gives more context as to millie’s current situation. she’s feeling like she’s being followed. she’s really not down to commit to a serious relationship with brock. ew to the lifespan of a caucasian man in this country line. her new employer is a man not a woman. feels like verity vibes… freida mcfadden is not beating the plagiarism allegations any time soon. LOSER!

oh great… here we go again. i guess it’s been a couple of years, and millie claims to be in a better spot until she loses her job. she likes kids now? sure… the south bronx is scary? sure… her boyfriend has a heart condition we need to be aware of? i guess.
