this was a fun, twisty book that ended up being very different from what I thought it would be! the beginning reminded me a lot of Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, and that’s kind of how I thought the story would progress, but it ended up being more high stakes and mysterious than I would have guessed. some of the elements of the plot seemed a little underbaked, but it all came together in such a compelling way that I didn’t mind. great audiobook listen!
