This was a book chosen by one of my book clubs. Didn’t know anything about it or the author. Turns out it’s her first novel. It is outstanding, but do not read it - listen to the audiobook to get the full effect. Just as my teachers in high school and college always said - Shakespeare was not meant to be read but to be spoken. The audiobook narrator is a classically trained shakespearian actor and does a superb job. Part coming of age, part murder mystery, everything about this novel is well done.

I loved the book but after reading reviews on reddit i am not so sure.First let us talk about meredith.she is shown a slut and i think she kind of uses oliver.wren is just an extra character.There was not a scene with her in it in whole book except for the part where she collapsed.phillipa is still involved somehow.It is kind of creepy how richard started acting.like he was a retard.i thought that maybe later in book they will explain why did he act this way.
