Really enjoyed this until the last 50 pages or so. Was so ready for it to be a 4,5 star read but the ending really ruined it for me. I don't know what I was hoping for or expecting but certainly not this. Semi-spoiler but the ending gives

the low-key lazy "I opened my eyes and realised it was all a dream"

vibes.

when I realised this was the same premise as Kind Hearts and Coronets (or A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder, if you're more theatre than movie) I thought I knew how the book would end. Turns out, I did not. Honeslty, I'm a little annoyed at the ending, but I get why it ended that way.
