Truly so fun and twisty! I always enjoy rooting for characters that I definitely shouldn’t be rooting for, and this book was that in all the best ways. I loved how complex and hypocritical and sad and funny Claire was, it was great to inhabit her thoughts as she stumbled through grief (and murdering). This book had interesting things to say about grief and also an unexpected amount of things about elderly care and dignity. The reveals at the end were unexpected (and maybe a bit neat), but ultimately I thought the ending was fun and compelling. I enjoyed the audiobook experience and flew thought it!
