It’s becoming apparent that I really like books with an element of “political intrigue”. I was gifted this book by a friend and was aware of how popular it was so I was exited to give it a shot. The first third of the book I was so in and engaged and loving it, and then they confess, and then the next what feels like THIRD of the book, is just the two main characters having sex in different places around the world. It was like i was being told there were stakes and this was dangerous. But it sure didn’t feel like it. And then everything picked up again in the last third and I quite liked the ending. No hate at all if you love this book, just wasn’t my favorite! 🫶
