KATE QUINN NEVER MISSES
This is my favourite of her novels so far. What a story! I don't usually pick up such long audiobooks but this was 100% worth it, I'm so glad my friend recommended it. I couldn't stop listening.. it's crazy to think about all the research that went into this novel. I loved the way the characters interact, how interconnected they are, and the sense of dread employed by Quinn to keep the readers on the edge of our seats. Truly, it was masterfully done. I will be reading more of her stuff!! Amazing work!
