These characters are unlikeable from the start. As we learn more about the characters, they’re even less likeable. They’re white, middle class folk with the privilege that entails. Instead of being whiny, they need to learn to learn about and accept themselves. They need to give of themselves to their community or a societal issue they’re passionate about. Something. They definitely need to talk to professionals. They don’t make smart decisions. They’re like real people, except that typically, real people have some redeeming qualities and I couldn’t find those within this couple. 6 hours of these people was a wasted 6 hours. They deserved the trouble they got themselves into. Every single thing. Yuck.

Also, the depiction of 10 year olds is so far off. 

Character driven and terrible.

This was super good. The twists at the end just kept on coming, they really took me by surprise. I’ve been recommended this author so many times and I’m glad I finally gave her a go because it was super entertaining and tense. Also I loved how a lot of it was centered around their complex and unusual relationship.
