This would have been the best book I read in 2024, but it took me until the end of January to finish it. Really intense at times, the story left me guessing. I will definitely be rereading this many years to come.

I really enjoyed reading thos book. I did find the reflection on puritan culture to ne a little confusing at times. I find the main character gets away with a lot in this story. Worth the read though
