I struggled a whole lot with (small spoiler) how much the main characters are being dishonest to their close friends (and each other! and themselves) in the first two thirds or so of the book. The unraveling and the resolution at the end was beautifully done, but I was so so uncomfortable getting through the first part of it with lying being such a linchpin to the plot.
