Do they know who Albert is ?

In the book he's a snake. Could he be a pedophile that groomed her ??

Also, the blossoming in the belly part.. Could she have been pregnant, maybe from her father found out about it.

It never mentions a blossoming belly. Says her stomach grows inwards, inverted as she's starving and withering away.

Edit: someone replied about a blossoming hunger in her belly, that's just a fancy way of writing she was getting hungry and that was before she met Albert.

"She took a deep breath and shoved the dry biscuit into her jeans pocket. Her stomach let out a low rumble, signaling the hunger blossoming within her belly. The biscuit was all the food she would probably get tonight. " it's incredibly metaphory.. don't know what to make of it exactly.

Ah yes I got the notification for your reply but it didn't show up to reply to until today so I edited my comment.

I believe you're right, heavy metaphors here, I think Albert is a "snake" who is a "Predator" aka Pedo, the venom can be a metaphor for bodily juices, incredibly disturbing..

Agreed & there arenanfew metaphors here. This is disturbing in every way possible.

I think the key thing here is finding out who Albert is & what role did the father or mother play in her disappearance. Also, I believe she was or is pregnant. When I read the comment about her belly, to me she was could be referring to being pregnant maybe.

I'm so sad for this baby

Father and Mother = Albert somehow? Like a cult or something? And the journal is them trying to fuck with the cops? Or Multiple personality disorder?

Yes, finding out who Albert is, is going to be huge in this case & who wrote the journal. Multiple personality disorder could be possible too. I don't feel like this is a Cult.

I feel like Albert is someone who engaged in sexual relations with this girl. Are they dealing with two murders. Albert & Edie or is Albert still alive and wrote the journal.

I feel like the Mother & Father know more than what they're are saying. If they can find out who Albert is, that would be huge
