I wanted to love this book as much as I loved The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. It was good! It was well written, well thought out, and executed in a way that was like pieces of a puzzle falling into place. I love those elements.
I think it lacked some sparkle. I didn't connect with any of the characters the way I hoped I would. That may just be me. But regardless, this is an excellent read. Its narrative is dark and tumultuous, and I loved that as well. This story told any other way may not have had the same impact. The changes in the way characters remembered certain events and the twist near the end were impeccably detailed. I would strongly recommend this book.
