Wow! This book was definitely a slow burn, but it delivered at the end. Author Jean Hanff Korelitz did a great job incorporating the book within a book storyline. I loved all of the inside views of what it’s like to be a writer and the struggles they go through. I was also intrigued by the “plot” and loved the little snippets of the book and how it coordinated with the overall story. I love how she wove everything together. Every loose end was tied up neatly. Other readers complained about knowing the twist early, but I was caught off guard until the end and I really liked that because I usually guess the twist early. I liked the different voices of the characters and I liked the development of the characters. I was nervous wondering who was going to get caught! Overall, it took some time for me to get invested in this book but once I did, I couldn’t put it down!! Definitely one of my favorite reads of the summer! I found myself telling others about it!
