I enjoy an unreliable narrator to a point but this felt like a LOT.
I do think one thing that kept drawing me out of the story was the dramatic endings to each chapter. There’s only so many times you can write “before her world came crashing down” in one way or another before it’s overdone and practically every chapter does it here.
I think the strongest part of this book is the jumps in time.
Ultimately, I just never trusted the narrator, it felt very Roger Ackroyd esque so I wasn’t surprised by the twists.
