The beginning of this book pulled me in almost immediately. There's an interesting character facing many of the same challenges women face in 2023. And then I hit the middle of the book slump, and it took a while to get back out. I felt the ending was a bit disappointing, felt rushed, and didn't connect back to the start of the story like I hoped. Despite this, I think this is such a good story!
