The writing flows beautifully, so much so that I finished this long book in less time than I've taken on much shorter titles recently. I didn't want to put it down when I knew if I kept reading I'd find out whodunnit and, far more interestingly, why. This isn't a flowery book, so when the descriptions do appear you pay attention, alert to the fact your time isn't being wasted with gratuitous prose. I liked the matter of fact nature of the writing, that left a lot of emotion at the door. It was clever and astute and it didn't make me cry (so good for reading in public!)
I'd like to thank the publishers for sending us a copy to review. This is not the first Claire McGowan book I've read, and I'll certainly be making an effort to dig through her full back catalogue after this one. For more of her work, see [[I Know You by Claire McGowan]]. You might also enjoy [[The Story of Beautiful Girl by Rachel Simon]].
