Don't Believe a Word by Patricia MacDonald

3.0

Not a bad read, but honestly not one that really gripped me. I never particularly liked Eden (although I didn't particularly dislike her, either). I couldn't really understand why Eden's mom would have run away with someone who was consistently painted as such a jerk. There was a weird thing with an incestual relationship that was just kind of shrugged off like it wasn't a big deal, which felt extremely uncomfortable to me. Like I said, not a bad read, but not the kind of book that made me want to rush off and see if MacDonald has written anything else.
