This book wasn’t exactly what I expected it to be, based on the blurb. It was a book club read. I think the perspective was interesting, but I didn’t find the execution as engaging as I had hoped. I wanted to care about the protagonist, but up until the very end, I wasn’t sure why, and ultimately, she was forgettable.
