I'm not sure what to say about this book. I didn't like it at all. I wanted it to be more about the mystery (who killed her and why) and less about the relationship the main character has with everyone else. But maybe it's because I really don't enjoy romance novels. To me, that's what this was. If that's your thing, you might like it.

Not a great book but a very good book. Her writing reminds me of Anita Shreve. Always serious with relationships breaking down. Her characters are all flawed in love and life.

I really liked this book, and with that in mind, Im not entirely sure what to say about it. Im always surprised when people make a point to mention a novel is a debut, because it doesnt necessarily take multiple novels to finally create a great one. Some authors just have talent, its likely why they started writing to begin with, and this author definitely has talent.

This is the perfect summer read! Scandalous, adultery, murder, family drama. Loved it!
