I found it pretty easy to figure out what was going on with the "death ladies" predictions by about halfway through the book. However, the journey of the book was still fairly enjoyable.

I did like the ending and the how/why she ended up doing that on the plane. As well as all the frank discussions of mental health.

Overall, it is a decent read, and quite emotional.

Narrators' Rating: 4.5 stars

My only complaint with the narrators was some of the voices they used were annoying or repetitive in different characters.

not bad.

The premise of this book was good and interesting. However, the execution of the plot was lacking. It was a decent book and I have nothing particularly bad to say about it except for that I don’t think it necessitated the page length. Maybe it is because I’ve recently read a few books about mortality, but this book didn’t really stand out for me. Some people love it though. It just wasn’t for me. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it to a friend.

I will never not read a Liane Moriarty book. And this book contained much of what I like in her others: a big cast of quirky, likeable, flawed characters, lots of wit and humor and heart, and plenty of unexpected events and twists. However, this book started off with too many characters to keep track of, and by the time the main ones emerged I was still quite confused and hard to remind myself who was who. It also felt like a manipulative read. Every chapter ends on a cliffhanger, and since there are multiple narrators, it's awhile before you get to the resolution of each one. By then it's lost its impact because I'm struggling with the cliffhanger of the other POVs.

I won't say too much but I felt like the whole premise of it and the resolution was also manipulative.
