I've been a long time fan of Emily Giffin's books and I've read everything she's written and I had the pleasure of meeting her in person a few times now and hearing her speak. This book is a bit of a departure from her usual love focused plots. Now is this a bad thing? Not at all! Giffin addresses an incredibly important topic, privacy in the age of social media and how it impacts family and community. This was a powerful story about the roles of race and class and bias in society as well. Seeing the dynamics in the town stemming from the scandal are incredibly thought provoking and provide a lot of food for thought.

I can't say I didn't miss the writing I've come to love a la Something Borrowed, but if this is a new direction for Giffin, I will be along for the ride to see where it goes next.

Thank you to Random House/Ballantine Books for an advance copy. All opinions are my own.
