Or so I thought, until events developed in unexpected ways, and minor mysteries unfolded. I started wondering just who could be trusted, and who was going to get hurt.
So the book became quite difficult to put down, and there were some surprises before the somewhat predictable (but entirely satisfactory) conclusion. But - sigh - I have to remove a star from my rating for a couple of all-too-explicit bedroom scenes, which - unfortunately - seem to be compulsory with this kind of publisherexpected these days. Yes, I realise that modern fictional couples are going to get each other into bed after just a few dates, but I really don’t want any detail about what they get up to. When I like a book, I want to be able to recommend it to all my friends, including those with conservative tastes and young teenagers; alas, I can’t do so when there are ‘adult’ scenes.
Still, other than that, I thought this a very enjoyable light read that was thought-provoking, and also quite memorable. Highly recommended if you’re keen on women’s fiction of this kind.
