1.0

I was really excited for this book, it seemed like a great plot from the back however it was too short to really give it the detail it needed. Great premise with a mediocre at best execution. 

Not a fan of how the author who emphasized how okay the main character was with not having kids decided what made her feel like living again was having a husband and a kid. Women can be happy without those things. There were plenty of other lives that I feel like the main character could’ve been happier in.


Overall this one was disappointing.
