1.0

While I had no expectations for this book, seeing the audiobook on Libby I put a hold on it.  There were so many moments I questioned why I continued listening to this book.  It started out fine I guess, but after the four hour mark I was over it.

I really don’t know what the plot was and the chapters were way too long.  The writing style was fine but the whole thing felt so superficial.  There some heavy topics and yet there was just no connection to any of it leaving some parts feeling underdeveloped.  Most of the sisters were unlikeable, I really liked Avery in the first chapter she was in then she ends up cheating, stealing just to feel something even though she has more than enough money to actually pay for said stolen items.  I just honestly couldn’t get over the cheating, that trope annoys me so much, her wife was literally so lovely.

Avery: my wife is perfect I wouldn’t change anything
Also Avery: *cheats on her with a stranger*

There were parts I liked about this book but they were overshadowed by the things I didn’t like unfortunately.  I did enjoy getting multiple point of views though.
