My mom read this and truly enjoyed it. My cousin saw her post about it and asked to borrow it for her book club since the library holds on it were months out. I then proceeded to read said 478 page book in one sitting so I didn't have to wait till my cousin returned it 😆
Needless to say, this was a good one. All three of us thoroughly enjoyed the reading experience. Lots of complex characters and the story kept you guessing. I really tried to predict what was going on but didn't have much luck.
It is told in multiple povs and has a nonlinear timeline, so this might be a bit confusing on audiobook. I did catch myself checking the year on some of the chapters.
