Oof...don't read this if you dislike talk of  pregnancy/child birth/children or are triggered by miscarriage or infertility.

The twist wasn’t great & did not give answers to the main character’s insomnia.

This book, incredibly written, wonderful characters, compelling storyline, but my gosh, made me scream in my car. Break down in tears. And want to hurl it across the room if it wasn't an audio book. Hence, taking off stars for emotional distress. Going to take awhile to recover from that one. But well done.
