This is another book that will stay with me forever. I feel like I know every single character as if Iâve met them in real life. I had no idea addiction played such a large part in this book, which is something that hits close to home. I appreciated the way McDaniel gave these women such detailed and moving backstories, showing that they were so much more than their addictions.
I thought I had a good idea of how the story would end but the actual ending had me audibly say âWHATâ to myself more than once.
An easy 5/5

DNF @ 60%
When I say I tried, I TRIED.Â
Iâve been reading this since June 10th (today is September 10th) and I only got to 60%.Â
I donât mind dark books, but this is DARK and bleak - making for a combination that had me putting down my kindle after each chapter. I tried this on Kindle via eGalley as well as audio from Libby.Â
While I know that itâs important for authors to inform readers of things that often get forgotten by using fiction, I get concerned when they started using overly descriptive language that seems like it would fit more in a romance novel. Â
I wish that she had used the River aspect more because once that was gone, there was no flow.Â
I finally set it down once animal neglect was added in because of course the author just has to pile on more dark things.Â
I will say, the narrator for this is fantastic. Without the audio, Iâm not sure I would have gotten to 60%.Â
