I really loved this author’s last book, The Plot, so I was excited to see a new book coming out, but this one failed to capture my attention in the same way. The concept of the story was interesting but all of the characters were either flat or impossible to like which made getting engaged more difficult. The writing style is good but not for me. It was full of too much description and felt like it could have been edited quite a bit. The style came across as pretentious and cold which I didn’t really think fit the character who was narrating. This is the story of a family - the parents have an odd relationship but the mother wants children so they do early IVF and have triplets and years later to help solve some of hte family’s issues a fourth child from the same batch of fertilized eggs. This wasn’t a bad family drama, but overalll I think it wasn’t for me.
