I can’t remember the last 300+ page book I read in nearly a single sitting. What a terrific story, so well told. So many tie ins to my life: Mallory the protagonist, 18 months sober, the early death of her sister in a car accident.
Books like these remind me of the true joy that comes from reading a good story. I’d give it five stars but for the zany, frumped up ending. This story demanded a simpler, more elegant way to finish such a smooth, entrancing beginning and middle.
