I did not liked the way he thought about her for more than half of the book. Sure he had no other way of thinking or whatever but he just thought of her as an object! Maybe it's because in my mind the Eloise I think about I'd the one from Netflix, the one that is so feminist and self assured I would never think she would let the way he treated her pass.

The way this book talks about depression and suicide is disgusting. Phillip is horrible. I cannot believe he is constantly referred to as a good man while he:
 
1. was incredibly neglectful and toxic to his children.
2. was CONSTANTLY talking about how his wife's depression was such a "burden on him" and "how hard is it to just be happy" and how he's "not bad in bed so how dare she just lay there and not enjoy it"
3. literally said that Marina "couldn't even kill herself properly"
4. was constantly telling Eloise to stop talking
5. literally said "will you just shut up and do something else with that mouth" when Eloise was trying to tell him about how something was wrong with how the kid's caretaker was treating the kids
6. acting like he owned Eloise
