Narrator Rating: 3.75 stars
 
    My biggest complaint is that the two narrators' voices were too similar. I'm so glad that the character names were at the start of the chapter and on the chapter names. 
     The ending surprised me in a great way. It wasn't what I expected, and I liked the women banding together. I rarely don't see who it coming but this one I didn't. 
    It's a terrific book with plenty of social commentary. Overall, it was very enjoyable. And I get why the cast wasn't diverse, that social set doesn't have a lot of diversity in it.

Less and less interested in stories that out women against each other, but I appreciate how this novel portrayed the same situation from multiple (flawed) points of view. The ending was twisty but I think there was opportunity for more twists to be honest.
