A few thoughts:
🎀 My first Sally Hepworth novel, recommended by a recently discovered book-friend from work. Why is it so exciting when you find other readers? I started it right away. 💁🏻♀️
🎀 The writing was simple & easy to read. I felt like it was written in a very beach/holiday kind of way & had that very Aussie vibe to it. To me it felt like a relaxed thriller, if that kind of thing exists. Despite this, there were some heavy issues, such as SA, DV, mental illness, alcoholism etc.
🎀 Got me good around chapter 16 - a few little twists to pull me in, & they kept coming from there! I loved how this unraveled & enjoyed the multiple points of view.
🎀 Will definitely seek out the other novels by Hepworth after reading this one!
