At times I found this book a chore to pick up and I also felt like I’d read so many books exactly like it (think Conversations with Friends) with the only difference being Anna is an aspiring Opera singer which for me added a nice nostalgic touch to when I was younger and an aspiring ballet dancer. But there are a few snippets from the beginning section and end section that I really clicked with and got me thinking. I also really felt like I was in Anna’s head, living her life with her which is honestly probably why I struggled to pick it up at times. Then the very end got me frustrated again because it’s exactly like all those other similar books I’ve read which was a bit of a let down but oh well.

reading this was like reliving my toxic past relationships from an outside perspective and hating all of Anna’s choices but also unfortunately relating to them as well.
that last sentence got me though and i don’t know how to feel…

The writing was bad... I mean the quotation marks are being ignored and it just felt wrong. The writing. Her crushing for some old man who has money. Her not realizing the danger and her telling everything as if it has happend 20 years ago. Just bad. I have better books on my shelf to use my time for than this one.
But at least the cover looks good.
