Book #2 done for 2022
Good read, surprising twist in the middle
This is hard. Is it a beach read? Check. Did I think of a time when I would devour books about friendships in one day? Also check. But even as a simple summer novel, it dealt with weighty material in a less weighty way. If it had been pure escapism, it might lack depth. Darker, it would be a different novel. I enjoyed it, but couldn‘t help but wonder how some things could have been different, sort of like the subject matter in the novel itself.
