This one is such a genre bender! I love it when books don’t fit into one, neat box. It has the usual romance thread, but that is not the sole focus of the book (and I am ALL for it!😉). This one has an added layer of depth that I feel some of her others lack. I also think this book works really well structurally. The alternating storylines kept me engaged and interested in both stories equally. I agree this does give some Evelyn Hugo vibes, but that was not off-putting for me.

I enjoyed the overall premise of this one and find Alice to be a very unique character. I appreciate her outlook on life as well as the circumstances that shaped her. I think she faces some unique challenges that were interesting to read about and easy to connect with.
