3.0

I appreciate what McCorkle is trying to do with this book, exploring the connections between people, the things we tell and the secrets we keep, the differences in our perceptions of the same story, but I am relieved to be done with it. The pace of this novel is very slow and the different storytelling voices not as distinct as I prefer in novels with multiple povs. (This is an ARC I got through LibraryThing.)
