After Alice Fell

The moody, atmospheric backdrop really pulls readers into the story. I'm curious whether the author drew from personal history or classic Gothic literature.

Her mental state made me question what was real and what was a product of trauma. It added a layer of depth but also kept me guessing—was I the only one unsure at times?

Balancing those emotional themes with a suspenseful plot must have been tricky. I wonder what led to the choice of framing the story through the protagonist's psychological struggles.
