I picked this up immediately after finishing ‘The Good Sister’, Hepworth’s other book because I really enjoyed my time with that. Hepworth has a way with weaving how characters relate to each other really well to her readers. It’s like… I am there in the same room as them. But this one fell short. I was hopeful, and turning pages really quickly until the big reveal. And I was sorely disappointed.
I’m also unsure if infertility was properly represented in this book.
This book had so much potential!!!!
