This was a frustrating read for many reasons; unlikeable characters, a meaningless title, and a “surprise” ending that fell flat. And don’t get me started with the ex-husbands, step fathers and step siblings that attempt to confuse the reader. If you throw in infidelity and teenagers committing murder, you’ll find that the best writing in the world can’t cover up the problems you’ll encounter during your slog through this book.
