I honestly didn't understand the hype that this book received. It was not worth the months that I waited for this book to come available through my local library. It was one of the worst books that I read in a long time. I enjoyed the other book I listened to by Lisa Jewell, but I thought that this one was terrible. It drug on and on and on. The beginning was kind of interesting, but then it got worse the further the book continued. I kept listening only so that I could add it to my "marked as completed" list. I'll be gracious and give this book 2 stars, when really, it only deserves 1.5 stars.

Honestly really liked this at first but it got way too long and repetitive. Also, why did we need to redeem the terrible men in this book? Or randomly include the pandemic? Lotta choices made here…
