i disliked the organization of the story on part 3!!! i think the chapters would have been better split between POVs and years of when things were happening. my only negative comment on this book 😌 now that we are over that- i love the characters, the plot, the twist, the writing style, the incorporation of a writer in an extramarital relationship!!! jojo slayed with this one! i’m a big fan of the film adaptation and i loved the book equally as much!!!!

This book has a wonderful writing style and an interesting story with a twist at the end. I also liked the two main characters Jennifer and Ellie.

I absolutely fell in love with this book! I read it so that I could watch the film and compare, going to see the film in the next few weeks.
The characters are just so brilliant, I felt every emotion with this book and cried at parts.
It was very character driven which I loved and I enjoyed going between the sixties and 2003.
Overall I’d definitely recommend this book!
