Great and funny! Bernadette's view on life will never cease to amuse me. I'd follow her on twitter. At first, I wanted the mystery aspect to be more prevalent, but the mystery that we have was kind of boring so it was great that it was restricted to like only a third of the book. There's a twist i defintely didn't see coming
when Audrey rescues Bernadette. I don't know if it makes that much sense, but i still appreciated it
. I also feel like a conversation could have solved a lot of problems. However, I'm not a hundred percent sure about that because there were a lot of problems surrounding Bernadette that it makes sense for the husband not to believe every one of them.
