I received an advance reading copy of this book thanks to Grove Atlantic/Grove Press via NetGalley.

This is a tough one to review. I absolutely loved Acampora's writing style. Her prose was lyrical and her use of language elegant. However I was perplexed by the characters in this book, namely the protagonist Abby. At the beginning of the book she irritated me and by the end she just left me perplexed and baffled. A story that many people have depicted before, but that absolutely none have done in such a fashion. After reading this, it is clear that Acampora is obviously a gifted writer, I'm just left a little uncertain about the construction of the characters contained within these pages.
