The Berry Pickers by Amanda Peters
3.25

This book felt like such an effort. I struggled with the writing structure of changing timelines within the same paragraph. It was a heartbreaking story and definitely felt the weight of it but because it felt obvious to be after the first 2 chapters what was going to happen, I think I just kind of became disconnected. I found Norma to be a bit frustrating as a character and Joe very unlikable who I might have been the point but it was hard for me to want to pick up this book and finish it. I only did because I could feel it looming. I was so hopeful for this but it didn’t land for me personally
