For the most part, this book was a good read. At times I felt it very cliche (or predictable). I have first hand knowledge of mental disorders stemmed from childhood trauma, so this wasn’t something that is new to me. After I read the synopsis, I just knew that I needed to read this book.Ellie has blackouts. As you are reading you piece together the cause, or rather I did, very quickly. She is behaving recklessly, due to her alternate personality, Gwen. She really has no clue that Gwen exists until halfway through, which is normal for people with mental illness. It took my sister a year to grasp it. Ellie begins piecing together her traumatic childhood, all the while, Gwen is in control of her body.This is a good book, especially if you don’t understand mental disorders.I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
