Although this wasn't what I was expecting ( dark humour murder mystery) I really enjoyed it! I found it to be such and engaging and tense story. I feel like the subject of grief and anxiety was very well written and very emotive. I cried loads reading this book. The events were very well woven together and I didn't expect the outcome that happened, I was kept guessing throughout the book. I loved the characterisation and I could really empathise with Molly and how she felt. Many important issues were involved and explored in an interesting yet sensitive way. This is the second book I've read by this author and I'm looking forward to reading more of her work. I also listened on audio and loved the narration style.
