The story never came together in a way I found convincing. The characters were all pretty dislikeable, but in a way that seemed to be there purely to create antagonism in the plot. I didn't believe any of the characters, and even their motivations seemed to be a little ridiculous. I was wondering at some point if it was actually supposed to be satire, as the characters all seemed like caricatures of real people.
For fans of:
- A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini
- My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite
Moderate: Domestic abuse and Sexual assault
