A good read about how people are complicated
4 stars
This book was compelling to read not because of any sense of mystery, of which there is some, but because I wanted to learn more about what the characters were thinking.
The author chose to have the chapters cycle through the perspective of different characters surrounding the main character, Nora. It's a story of grief, how the grief of one person spills onto the other, and how people may have done and said one thing but actually thought or felt another way.
It was a good reminder that we are all stumbling through the world trying to make the best out of the mistakes we have made.
I would recommend to anyone who enjoys seeing things from another person's perspective, but if you are looking for a straight up mystery novel, like the synopsis implies, you will be disappointed.
