I loved this book so much, I read it in 24 hours! Though Joan and I have different personalities, and I found myself questioning her decision making skills, I felt connected to her as a character through her period of adaptation after she moved to Baltimore.
I found it hilarious that Joan created an alternate persona for herself, Miss Janet Lovelace who’s eighteen years old. This is something I would never have the guts to do, especially because it got her even more entangled in the web of lies she had spun.
