Her active withholding of crucial information from the police and the people in her life is exhausting.

I’m far enough and there is at least enough compelling me to finish the book. But the MC’s constant waffling between fear and nonsensical doubt anything bad will happen for the sake of furthering the plot is exhausting. How many bad decisions can one person make?

At first I thought the writing voice was just bad. Middle grade choices in words (think “feet clomping” and “drink gluggling”) but an interesting enough premise. But now the actual plot points are frustrating- issues that could easily be solved with even just slightly more straightforward communication, and better decision making. Still planning to finish reading it though.
