3.5 I think this needs a different title. Like Heartstrings or The Trouble With Love or Unraveling Threads. Either way I don’t feel like calling Bailey a secret keep is all that accurate. Anyways this book was a little slow developing and took some time to get into but I am more than happy I stuck with it. Cause I’m a romance girl so I’m a happy endings person, and that ending was well worth it. I think because of the time period and the topics I wasn’t expecting a satisfying outcome at all, so I was pleasantly surprised. I liked the narrative voice and getting all the different POVs I would have liked a little bit from Matty, to actually hear from him on his choices. I feel like there are some deeper ways of looking at all the characters behaviors they whys of who they are and what they did, so I can’t wait to discuss this one with my book club.
