I found the 2 stories interesting, Nan's backstory giving her character some likeability.

I think I would enjoy it more if it were about some completely fictional people, especially since some very bold statements were made about and by real people who still have very much living relatives and offsprings. This made me quite uncomfortable while reading.

delphic's review against another edition
2.5
The only real issue i had that isn't connected to the problems caused by using real people was the faux omniscient and thus unreliable narrator of the POV character. It was interesting if annoying, would have preferred a simple POV change rather than acting like the POV character somehow knew all of this was happening and what everyone was thinking. I also felt that this book never truly explored the various trauma's held within to the extent it shoudl, merely using them as set dressing, character motivations and pieces. in the mystery.
Overall, not a story i would recommend.
Moderate: Death, Rape, Child death, and Pregnancy
Minor: War, Suicidal thoughts, and Murder
