This book would've been a higher rating if I did not feel uncomfortable about the plot and how certain issues were glossed over.
I just wish the author focused more on the sister and her relationship with the Cora, especially since Cora is literally married to her ex-fiance.
Personally, the infidelity in this book made me really hesitant to like it- purely from a moral standpoint. At certain points it felt like mental illness and trauma was used as an excuse for cheating. Kind of reminds me of Dear Evan Hansen.
