I had so hoped for a happy-ish ending for her. I was so sad to see her die in the end, but I was a little relived that she didn't repeat her mother's patterns. I guess death is preferably to that.

When I learned more about her mother, I liked her more. She had bad life and no one was consistent in her life, except for the scumbag Otto.

Otto is my obvious least favorite character. I can't think of a single good quality about him, but I think that was the point.

Andrew's parents are in second place for my least favs. The dad for obvious reasons and the mom for staying in that situation. There is no way that I would allow someone to lay a hand on my kids.(less)
