I can only describe Broken Country as a crescendo - in the beginning, I wasn’t sure where it was going, except that there was clearly a love triangle and heartbreak. But small details are slowly revealed and it soon builds to a point where I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.
With short chapters and a relatively short length, this book packs a punch. I imagine it will be a book club pick for March and will be a highly talked about book in 2025.
