This is a story about a girl who is essentially covering up a murder. She hits an old man with her car in the middle of a rain storm, and instead of bringing him to a hospital, she buries him alive in the woods. She has a bad relationship with her mom, and she had a wonderful relationship with her dad before he died. I liked the parts of the story surrounding the actual crime and cover up. I felt like those parts were really well written and suspenseful. The ending was also really good, but it leaves me wanting more. I am confused about the whole side plot of the girl’s anxiety. It seemed to sort of drag on and started to make me forget about the original plot of her killing a man with her car. I would also suggest not to say the word “anxiety” so many times. There were one or two paragraphs near the beginning where it was said in almost every sentence and it made it sound choppy.
