A gifted new suspense writer makes her sizzling debut with this serpentine tale exploring all the ways in which men enact violence on women, how women try to reclaim their own sense of self, and the lingering effects on their children’s lives. Filled with shocking twists and turns, this is a book that both asks what it means for a woman to be in control of her life while also highlighting the impact of small daily violences upon women, and the connection between physical and psychological harm.

Does not live up to the hype
Revisado: 08-07-24
Super predictable and formulaic. Way too preachy. Why do so many mediocre (at best) debuts get the hype machine? This was basically a rant against men with no subtlety or nuance in the telling. There were no male characters who were sympathetic. What happened to round v. flat characterization? Final twist wasn't surprising at all and the whole idea that the only way to get equality is to murder the men in your life is delivered seemingly without irony. Maybe it was supposed to be tongue in cheek, but I don't think so.
Disappointed, since it was featured on NPR.
