I gotta say I'm getting tired of thrillers where the plot twist is just
oooo she's crazy! something's wrong with her mental health!
although i will admit, the plot did go in a different direction than I was expecting. Still, this book could easily have been at least 30% shorter, and one of the main characters got pretty sidelined and shuffled neatly away imo.
Also it's still weird that she followed her to yoga class I don't care.
Also holy sh*t I have NEVER read a book where the characters drank so much alcohol and their alcoholism wasn't a plot point. No wonder they had so much trouble conceiving. Hopefully they ease up now they're parents.
