“If you know someone's fear, you know them.” 
The majority of the story was so basic, I'd think of course every time there was a twist. The main heroine was a) so dumb omg and b) her inner monologue was sooo repetitive. However, the simpler prose was - despite the very obvious overuse of italics lol -  fast to read and throughout the book, I saw the potential of the author. Also, the main twist at the end managed to surprise me, so that's nice I guess
