I alternated between reading and listening to an audiobook for this one. For what it’s worth, I didn’t see a lot of buzz about this one and one user on IG had wanted to read this with a group of us during this month. Funny enough, one of the main characters has the name of March lol. This is kind of like a slice of life in small town Texas mixed with multi family drama & theatrics throughout. A lot of infidelity, unresolved anger and eyebrow raising actions. I wasn’t one hundred percent moved by this unfortunately. It wasn’t the author’s fault, I just think this could have engaged me more if there was more of a concrete plot tied to this.
