 The setting of this book si very similar to desperate housewives series. living in perfect and safe neighbourhood, perfect family. and everyone have a secret... 

i found gigi is the most lame character. her passive dealing with her teenage daughter irritates me greatly. i feel like i want to shake her and scream at her. 

the plot, the twist and the climax i found very disappointing to my taste. perhaps i am hoping for much dramatize ending. but this one felt flat. 

the author building the characters up is also dragging.
