Big thnx to NetGallery for a free copy of this book.
I find it light, entertaining, and interesting read. It feels like watching a movie play in front of your eyes, and I really believe it will be screened one day :).
Characters are interesting and warm, the plot is somewhat predictable, but I didn't mind. The writing is great, it really takes you to the vast territories of Alaska - you can see the beauty of its rawness, and the honesty of it's people. The book is a real page turner, so when you start, you wouldn't be able to put it back until you finish.
Overall, a great book to read on a hot summer days. My reccomendation.

This book is a mix of different styles with a general feeling of a Handmaid's Tale atmosphere.
20 years from now, Australia has new government and a new population / fertility policy. Every woman is obliged to have two children, take a maternal leave for that time, and then give to kids to artificial family, whose job is to raise children, so she can develop professionally. But what happens when a new mother gets a bit more attached then she should, and the politics have their own agenda?
I needed a bit more time to understand the world the author has created and some bits remained unclear for me till the end. But I could relate to a mothers bond to her child, a child she didn't think she needed, but afterwards couldn't imagine her life without it. And her fight to do what she thought is best for the two of them, not wanting to conform is what kept me reading till the end.
It is a good novel with and interesting premise. It can be a bit unclear at some chapters, but overall a great read for all dystopia fans out there.

I was drawn to this book the moment I saw the description. Can a marriage survive after one mistake? How to pass though it and still stay solid? Can a betrayal actually be forgotten?
Hannah and her husband had it all...Up until she saw the texts from another woman. He is sorry, but....what now?
Good premise and an interesting read...A wonderful insight on a moment in life when things could go either way, yours is only to choose with what can you live with.
A sincere thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
