I’m learning that just because you read a book really fast, doesn’t make it a top tier read. Although I read it in 2 sittings, I don’t really know how I feel about it. I liked the 2 POVs and duel timelines, but this book screamed “you need to go to therapy”. The extreme lack of communication was a turn off for me. And it’s a situation I’m sure every woman can relate to. Man refuses to deal with trauma, man expects woman to put up with it, woman tries to be therapist, man acts like an asshole. But it was still a fast story at least. I just didn’t completely love it.
