Thoroughly enjoyed this book! I’m a sucker for any book set in NYC so that was already a plus for me. There were some parts that I found both the sisters unlikeable, but I think it brought some complexity into their already complicated relationship. I sometimes wanted to yell at one or both of them “just freaking communicate with each other” but I know things are easier said than done. I listened and read this book and always find that combo to make books more enjoyable. 

Despised Jeremy, loved Patrick, but also found both “romances” not completely necessary but Patrick’s story line was great to provide some levity in a dark story.
