I’m an outlier on this one as everyone I know agrees with you. I found it a bit much at times, but was able to just go with it. Somehow the positives outweighed the negatives and it just made me happy.

But on this one, we are not aligned. I found the story line, a little too neat and obvious. I thought the writing felt hurried and not cohesive. I have enjoyed several of Ruth’s books, but if not for wanting to know how this one wrapped up, I probably would have DNF’d. On gave it 3 stars. Whether we agree or not, I always appreciate your insights both here and on Sarah’s Bookshelves. Thank you.
