dark emotional fast-paced

4.0

I tore through this book - it's definitely for those who like a dark and twisty relationship saga, and is appropriately dramatic and interesting. Some moments were very easy to identify with, others were very much not, and some were just very very sad. It's also fascinating that this book was based on real-life research, since it reads like fiction - that adds a different layer to the stories and makes them a bit more uncomfortable, because you can't relish in the drama they way you would if it was made up.

I listened to the audiobook which was read very powerfully. Being immersed in the narratives added to the emotion, intimacy of the stories and being in the women's confidence in their experiences.
