daniellejp16's review against another edition
3.5
This book was not at all what I was expecting. Told in a memoir format but fiction it’s told from the point of view of the partner of an RCMP officer in a small town in Alberta.
Julia, the observer and narrator, describes her life being the partner of an RCMP officer in a small rural town in Alberta. It took me a bit to get into as she describes day to day life that isn’t very exciting and I kept waiting for something big to happen. Instead the story begins to focus more about the difficult and toll her partner, Hardy, faces being an officer and his struggles with depression caused by his job.
Although I don’t typically love slower books this one was well done.
Thank you to NetGalley, Penguin Random House Canada and Knopf Canada for the advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.
