This novel was a short but compelling dive into the lives of three sisters who have been grieving the death of their fourth sister for a year. The women are all complex and complicated individuals with rich inner lives. I enjoyed reading each of their stories and how each of their relationships with their late sister was unique. I also enjoyed reading how messy their relationships were with each other. Still, I finished this book feeling a bit like something was missing. It starts and ends so quickly and I wish there was just a little bit more. The characters didn't feel as real as I wanted them to, but they were still interesting. I think Coco Mellors' depictions of addiction were pretty accurate, but it felt a bit harder to buy into some of the other aspects of the story. Overall, I think it was a good book but it didn't have the impact on me that I wanted.
