This was a good book but not one of my favorites from CoHo. I did like that it’s different than some of the others I have read from her. I find that Congo does a good job with being honest and showing a side to the world that some people don’t even think out. Please make sure to check the trigger warnings for depression and a suicide attempt.

I read this with a couple of friends and it really isn't my usual genre. It was a little soapy with long lost relatives appearing, affairs and infidelity, traumatic mental illness, and ridiculous names, but it was entertaining, considering how fast I binged it. Both Luck and Sagan also turned into after school specials at some points, which took me out of the narrative a bit. Not sure if I'd go back for more of Hoover.
