I really wanted to love this book but I found it very frustrating. I felt myself wanting to read the book but dreading when I was. I kept waiting for the “why” of it all. I know it was supposed to feel repetitive but it honestly was still lacking. I felt more connected with the husbands than the main character and felt minimal character growth and when she finally did, it was very sudden and felt less like growth and more like “giving up.” I liked the overall message of making happiness for yourself and wish that was reflected more in her efforts with the husbands.
