SO close to being a 5 star read but the ending felt rushed to me. Also…

I really wanted more time with all three of the main characters interacting together, when they finally do coincide the book is 98% done! I struggled with Alice’s choice at the end, I get she was angry but she seemed to, very casually, dispatch of the one person who could guide her through this new life…it felt like an odd choice.
