This was exactly the book I needed to read given recent political events. I love a mystery that pieces itself together over the course of a book. I love women who refuse to comply with the patriarchy and eventually convince other women to stand in solidarity with them. I love prose that strikes a balance between lightheartedness and dryness. I love intelligent dogs - Six-Thirty is definitely my favourite character in the book. This was such a heartwarming read and definitely lives up to all the hype.

I loved this book more than I can describe. I immediately fell in love with the characters and was invested in the relationships. It made me laugh and cry and feel such warmth and such heartbreak. Absolutely loved it.
