This is the story of Vivian, her family and some of the other people in her small town, where everyone knows everyone's business especially since the women that work on the switch board listen into other peoples telephone conversations!

I enjoyed that there were lots of little stories woven in to the main characters tale and that these all connected in someway throughout.

This book really reminded me of an episode of revenge (you all remember that TV show from 2011 right, with Emily Thorne in?) just without the murders. I kept thinking I had it all figured out and then what I thought was going to happen over 100+ pages was revealed over the next 5 or 6 pages which then had me mystified as to where it was going and this happened several times throughout the book!

I did find this rather slow but by no means was it less enjoyable, it just wasn't one that I wanted to sit and devour in one go.
