Between Us by Mhairi McFarlane
3.25
funny hopeful lighthearted medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I loved the dynamics between the characters. I love how everyone was flawed, although
I feel it could have served the story to not let Joe go full sociopathic liar mode. It would have retained some complexity, and fit the dynamics of the other characters.
As with other McFarlane stories she’s great at adding interest and driving plot but she has a tendency to leave some storylines uncooked.
How did Dev who was largely absent know it was Matt who liked her ?if he was secretly more observant why wasn’t he there for her ?
