phew. So I am not a true crime girl at all. And I tend only do relatively cozy historical mysteries. BUT I loved this book. I listened to the audiobook (shoutout to Julia Whelan who I know isn’t everyone’s cup of tea) which prevented me from spoiling it for myself. Lots to think about. Lots to unpack. Lots of content warnings (sexual assault, creepy ass teachers, domestic violence). But I found it just fabulous and can’t wait to read The Great Believers (which I understand is really very different.)
