I read this book because I liked the Netflix show so much that I wanted to read ahead. I regret it, and hope Netflix does a better job with Eloise's story.

i think i can fairly say that reading this means i've also read men are from mars, women are from venus. 

eloise deserved so much better than a man that sexually assaulted his suicidal wife and then neglects his children after her death.
