Ok sooo it’s a wonderfully written book and the author is definitely talented. However, the story itself didn’t end up being my cup of tea. Rooting for the main character was super easy but her ending was not the one I was hoping for.

Basically Jane gets in a relationship, and engaged to be wed, with a man that’s 20+ years older than her when she is 18, leaves him for like 10 months after having found out that he had another wife literally locked in his attic, and then at the end of the book she comes back to him when she’s 19. And the ending portrays it as a happily ever after. Yeah, not my vibe.

Honestly my first attempt at listening to an audio book and the voice reading was pretty good but the book itself is awful and boring the audio couldn't make up for it

hey. 
I hated this book. 
- the age gap. 
- she doesn't really have any personality. 
- his personality is "oops I locked my ex-wife in the attic haha"
- it was just really f*cking boring. 
for me this was the epitome of "it is so bad, I want to give you a zero. but that's not possible, so I give you...a one."
