The Other Year by Rea Frey

3.0

Rea Frey artfully constructs a distinctive narrative around the disappearance of a child during a swim, delving into two divergent outcomes. While the adept handling of perspectives adds to the allure, the storyline becomes somewhat encumbered by the intricacies of multiple romantic subplots and the recurrent back-and-forth, contributing to a sense of weariness. Nevertheless, the overall reading experience remains enjoyable and thought-provoking.

I extend my sincere thanks to Netgalley, Harper Muse, and Rea Frey for generously providing me with a complimentary ALC in exchange for my candid review.
