Thoughts

This is sort of billed as a bit of a mystery thriller but it’s not that at all. It’s a well written story about a woman coming to terms with the end of a relationship and dealing with the mental health side of such a big upheaval in your life. I wasn’t entirely on board and not sure about all the characters but it was a good enough read to keep me going to the end, and it was kind of uplifting in the end.

Rating: 3 / 5
