It felt so real, like I was reading a snippet of someone’s actual life, and I really enjoyed the way it did flashbacks. I can see the similarities between this and Bridget Jones, like a lot of people have compared it to before. The very heavy themes in this were handled much better. though.
I do wish we got to see Queenie slap Tom just…once, a little slap, he got off way too easy.
I’m glad I finally got around to it, it’s been on my bookshelves forever!
