I was definitely interested and didn’t want to put the book down. There were a few loose ends that I wish were tied up at the end

like what was the deal with Cassandra blaming Meredith for her husband’s infidelity? I feel like that didn’t add anything to the plot. Also, I wish it was revealed that Marty and Shelby were having an affair, it would have made sense.

the reveal at the end was good but not crazy shocking.

Was enjoyable, wish some things were explored more rather than quickly wrapped up at the end.

This book was hard to put down. Just when you thought you knew how things were going to turn out, they turned, and then they turned again. I appreciated the different voices, and they worked quite well for an audiobook.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 Half way through the book I was suspecting everyone, that’s when you know it’s good. You have absolutely no clue how it’s going to end and you can’t put it down. I loved the different perspectives across different time lines. This book is incredibly well written and the plot is revealed in the perfect order and timing.
