I love this genre of “unstable women going through a crisis in their 20’s“ books. This was a nice read that for awhile I was reluctant to read. Once I learned the plot, it made me more curious. I thought the writing was blunt and captivating. Another thing I liked was that it was a good length, some books ,*MYYR for ex.* , go on longer than necessary. What I also loved was that the MC wasn’t a affluent white girl which is kinda prevalent in this troupe. I liked how it exploded her relationship with the the daughter too. I liked Rebecca and the MC’s relationship too. Read in two sittings.
