The Note by Alafair Burke
3.0

I was really looking forward to this book, especially with the expectation that it would center around the lives of “Three women, judged and vilified by strangers.” Unfortunately, I found it difficult to get into the storyline. The characters came across as overly whiny, and their development felt shallow and struggled to connect with any of them on a meaningful level. The plot also veered off course from what seemed like a simple prank gone wrong, making it hard to stay engaged with the core storyline.
That said, if you're someone who enjoys books with multiple side plots and a variety of character arcs, this might be a better fit for you. It just didn’t land for me the way I hoped it would.

*Thank you to Alafair Burke, Knopf and Netgalley for the digital copy. I am freely leaving my honest review.
