I saw all the reviews - but while I was reading it, I was giving a LOT of side eye.  Naked for a week?  C’mon…. Then Beth and Frank had sex every night after working on a farm all day?   I know a lot of women with only children but never one who didn’t want another one bc it would take away from the first one.  Of course the twist of the story explains that.   The twist was the redeeming quality for me.  Suddenly everything made sense.   But docking 1/2 star for unrealistic amount of sex.   Ha!
