The psychopathic features and analysis of behavior are the important parts of the fiction, which shows Brenda's unique style characteristics. The complex situation and lonely feelings of people have a great effect on readers, while the readers' experience is just like an adventure that cannot stop, which is approaching the truth of human nature step by step. In addition,the main clues of the fiction are clear with a strong sense of picture, but because of the limited space, the writing of characters' feelings and social networks is limited, refined and not redundant.展开更多
