I loved the narration on this one, I’ve struggled through some other novels by this author due to the narrator but this was an easy and entertaining listen.

I really enjoyed the story, the twists were not too surprising, however I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and pace.

I thought that the book was average. I like Claire’s style and absolutely loved “couple at number 9” and had lots of hopes from this book but it was a bit too slow for me.

It’s an average book
