This story opens with an unlikeable character - a writer- which of course, I love. In short order she manages to become rather grudgingly likable. In dual timelines, she takes us on a mournful retelling of her experiences with young love, and naïveté, then early parenting trouble. But then the story morphs into one of lies and secrets and eventually tragedy. All of this done with one of my favorite techniques- the book within a book. And wow did it work. It pulled me in and wound me up. The last 30 pages were so unexpected, so surprising, so intense. Great read.
