Ratings and reviews

It breaks you, compels you, forces you to question your own decisions and judgement. Then, slowly, very slowly, you're sown back together with threads and fibres you never knew were there. Utterly beautiful Claire. Thank you for sharing this, he would be proud.

My first book after a few years of, "reader's block", I read from start to finish, had to pull myself away sometimes, it was that captivating. I'm glad I got my groove back with with this book...Next 😊!

Loved the book but found the ending ,or lack of ,very confusing. Will have to read it again.
