EDIT jan 2023 - i'm going through and reclassifying some reviews now that i've read more and sat on the books for a while.
I feel like maybe time passing has made me grumpier? But I just don't remember this book at all. So it loses half a star. sorry!
originally 4 stars
-----
Marian keyes' writing is easy and fun to read, and I enjoyed this book a lot. It wasn't particularly deep or life changing, but despite the 660 pages, it was quick to read and I was invested in Amy's life and her choices.
However, I didn't like the epilogue, it seemed weird to add it on? It didn't really serve a purpose.
