I finished it, (Trust me, it was a close run thing ...) Like a Lost Episode of "Friends": The One Where One of them Kills the Annoying One. (That's NOT a spoiler, as they are all, every single blinkin' one of them, annoying. Including the baby ... But don't worry SPOILER, the baby didn't do it ...)
The characterization and psychology was shallow. Some of the Big Reveals could be seen coming a mile away. Structure tried to be "clever," with chapters rotating between 1st-person narratives from four of the female characters (missing out one - why?), and a 3rd person from the POV of one of the males characters (and only one - why? Possibly the author's realization that there is only so much deluded self-entitlement that the human frame can bear.)
It's a beach read. I read it. It's not very good.
