a rating in the 3 stars is a still good! i’m having trouble remembering that.
this book really set a scene, and i enjoyed the mystery and confusion of it all. i wasn’t planning on reading this anytime soon but it randomly became available to me on libby so i had to grind it out. i was bored in the beginning but i did just binge the last 35% of it after the longest night at work sooooooooo

The story was fine with some good twists, but the characters were a bit strange and not too likable. Also, the audiobook narrator wasn’t engaging, which probably impacted how much I enjoyed the book.

Very slow start and middle to this book, it did pick up in the last third and after putting it down constantly I found myself finishing it in almost one sitting. However I still feel like not a lot happened in this book and I’m not a fan of books focused entirely on setting. I also expected (maybe incorrectly) that there would be more magical realism in this. Finally….what is this trend recently with the last chapter/epilogue pregnancy!

Adrienne Young can do no wrong! This gave me all the feels so it’s an easily earned 5 ⭐️ and applause 👏🏻.
