The Favourites
by Layne Fargo
The Favourites by Layne Fargo – ★★★☆☆
All the drama, not quite enough depth.
Figure skating is the perfect setting for rivalries, ambition, and glittering tension, and this book had all the drama—but I kept waiting for that extra something to truly hook me. The characters had potential, but I never felt fully connected, and while the story had twists, it didn’t quite land with the impact I was hoping for.
That said, I totally think this would shine as a TV series—slow-mo rivalry stares and all! But Daisy Jones & The Six it is not. A solid three stars from me—enjoyable, dramatic, and fast-paced, but not quite a gold-medal performance.
