this was a profoundly bingeable book. it reminded me a lot of “the seven husbands of evelyn hugo” but I think I enjoyed this one more. I thought dava wasn’t very likable but perhaps that’s the point; it does create a very flawed character which suits the narrative well as someone looks back on their entire life before death. this book was exactly the type of easy reading experience I needed to close off the year.
