3.0

This kept me just interested enough to keep going, but in the first half it was a little bit of a task and in the second I think some of the character development didn't get quite where I wanted it. But this was a pretty interesting and unique read! I've seen it compared to The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and it definitely does give Taylor Jenkins Reid vibes, though it reminds me more of Daisy Jones and The Six due to all the different perspectives and how the characters' actions influence the overall chain of events. I loved the way it felt like a story within a story within a story and how they all interconnected. The ending was a little bit too neat in my opinion, but overall I enjoyed reading this.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the eArc!
