A review by happenstance

challenging dark emotional medium-paced

3.0

A whole lot of melodrama and how *not* to do ethical non-monogamy. But I mean, points for realism? Too many characters leads to none of them being particularly stand-out, and at least two of the new guys end up feeling like loose threads. I was frustrated at the ending and how most of this story hinges on a lack of any kind of sense or communication. It's still pretty interesting though, story-wise. It was a bit predictable and one-note in certain places, and I'm still sure I know the twist, but you never know! I guess I'll find out in book 3.
