amy_park's review
3.5
That being said the novel was enjoyable, it touched on many subjects and I felt the parts that commented on the 'place' of women in the 1920s was insightful and I'm glad the author commented on this as it usually is assumed that women were very passive in this era, which is not the case. The second twist was REALLY good, I didn't see it coming and enjoyed the reveal very much.
Overall it was enjoyable but probably won't pick up another from the author in the future, dependent on an interesting premise!
