Alice Sadie Celine
by Sarah Blakley-Cartwright
Mini Audiobook Review: Thank you so much to Simon Books for a copy of this book!
I did decide to do the audio of this and I kind of wish I read along with the physical book.
The premise of this book caught my attention but I felt it wasn't executed or perhaps the format of the book could have been better?
I have read another book where a mother falls for their daughter's friend but the circumstances were different and what made this one even more questionable was that it is a high school friend so Celine has known Alice since she was a teen. I thought maybe because I had some stuff going on that kept distracting me while I was listening but it was definitely hard to follow. One minute we are in one place and next Alice & Celine hooked up and I never saw or maybe I missed the lead up.
The last chapter was interesting as it was told from a new perspective.
I had no issue with the narrator, actress Chloë Sevigny. I thought she did well reading the book. I just wish I followed along with the text because perhaps it would have made more sense. I do not recall each chapter being called out as to whose POV it was so that could have helped as well.
