Another ‘I binged while down with COVID read’
I didn’t think I could be so pulled into the lives of five characters from a storage building, but here I am.
A quick mystery that takes surrounds one storage building with ripping affects for the five central characters.
This is my first B.A Shapiro and trust me - I’ll be looking into her backlist.
I was a bit skeptic of how much a book surrounding a few people from one building could reel me in after being so disappointed by the multiple people in one place trope in Anxious People, but this one delivered.
The timeline movement made sense in this one as well as the plot around each character. A few of the characters were amazing and some I really wanted to smack across the head. I needed more time with Serge, what a doll 🥹.
