Wow, this was tense and intense. Really stressful stuff. I’m not a fan of stories where a pregnant woman is in peril, and it’s a trope that comes up a lot in stories. It’s not an easy or light read here; but it works. How one person can have that much bad luck is also weird, but it works for story purposes. Was expecting a bigger punch with the epilogue twist—a trademark of the writer—but it’s easy to figure out.
You can’t really enjoy this book. But it’s riveting if quite a lot darker than her other work.
