The Spy Game by Georgina Harding

3.0

I was sent a review copy of this book by Goodreads which is pretty cool.

I actually enjoyed this book globally but not always page-by-page. It also took me weeks almost two months to finish despite being not very long. Largely this was because the opening was incredibly slow and steeped in too much childhood nostalgia for old and bad feelings.

The latter half of the book really picked up steam and the full emotional context of a daughter's search for her mothers' love (if you will) came into focus.

Major plots points were revealed too obliquely for my taste leaving me to wonder about what specifically was going on too often.
