I’ll admit on first starting this one I did question if this one was my kind of read. But OMG what a read!!! Devoured it in 2 sittings. I couldn’t put it down and when I wasn’t reading I was thinking about reading it. Liz Nugent knows how to weave an incredible story that is so engaging and gripping it’s like a rollercoaster. It’s a dark, sad and occasionally funny read and told in the past and present from 2 different characters point of view. I was so invested in both and found each character’s perspective as intriguing as the other. Initially I wasn’t sure if I liked Sally but once I got to know her - I loved her. This book is a must read and I can see it being on of the most popular books of 2023…
