I really enjoyed this audio book and even finished it in a day! 

The writing style, characters and twists this book took made it an incredibly engaging read. I also thought this was very different from other books that I’ve read.

The approach on the twisted mindset, manipulation and of course the themes of infertility were well constructed and at times quite emotional. 

The ending was a tad underwhelming and there were parts of the plot I felt could have been fleshed out more to hit home on but overall an interesting read and would recommend - but be sure to check the content warnings beforehand.
