Thought provoking and intriguing , I found this book captivating right from the beginning.
I really enjoyed the multiple perspective/timeline of this book and seeing all the small ways the characters intersected even when their stories were being told decades apart. Hilda’s story in 2020 really hit home for me and brought back lots of memories of living in Victoria during the pandemic.
I felt that La and Maz could have been further explored and that their stories were left unfinished while Peggy’s story was too much a focus but overall I really enjoyed this book
