The book explores a series of characters outside of Cleo & Frank in an attempt to create a weave of narratives but not me the overlap between characters felt very one note and wasn’t any significant development for some of the core characters.
The depth to the characters themselves as individuals felt well written and I found myself enjoying each in their own right. I do wish we got more from Zoe’s as for me she was one of the more interesting characters.
The pacing was definitely off with the writing style for select characters creating very long chapters and gaps between progressing their individual story arch’s. I also found the ending wrap up a bit underwhelming to be honest.
Overall the characters were great but felt like the interconnection between them wasn’t as well executed as I hoped. Though I don’t see myself reading this book again, I enjoyed the writing and would be keen to check out her other work.
