dark emotional mysterious sad fast-paced

3.75

this was a great followup to All Her Little Secrets with Vera’s background. i really appreciated her and Magnolia’s stories.

i was really sad when Hank died because i wanted Vera to be happy, even though i knew it wasn’t her journey.

i also appreciated the work Magnolia did for civil rights, even if she had some bumps along the way. i was glad she had a happy ending.

i’m so glad that Vera got Hank’s house, too.

overall i enjoyed this and i’m glad i picked it up.

I really liked how this book combined a thriller's pacing with a historical setting. The characters were really strong and the writing style was engaging. I just didn't like the ending. It felt really rushed and then too neatly wrapped up for me.
