I wonder about the mind of a person who can write such a story.....Until I realize, How much I enjoyed it. Are we Both Looney?

Really enjoyed this, a sweet swirl of words, with duck and dive and a fine dance to the end., Only your stories, I always feel, I can hear you speaking the words as I read them, I like that. Thanks.

I root for Bella to get away with all of it, I feel sorry for Bella, and I’m afraid of Bella and think she should be locked away…all at once. Brilliant!

And now I will go silence my phone.

Great story - nothing so chilling as uncertainty - except the thought of a sadistic therapist - or was she? Thank you.
