Fascinating book that looks into the near future and the "waht-ifs" involving our penitentiary system and offers a self-reflection on our current social needs for constant entertainment, consumerism, and social justice.

I had to see whether this book lived up to the hype and chose it as my beach read. I was sorely disappointed with the lack of depth with the characters. So many stereo-types! There just wasn't enough satire here for me to make all the extremely unlikable characters more interesting. The ending made no sense at all, and it felt like the author chose the topic of "trad wives" because of the zeitgeist of the time, but failed to deliver a novel that really had anything to say. So disappointing!

This book spent so much time going through Margret’s ancestry that it didn’t spend enough time developing the relationship between the two main characters. I felt like we jumped from “who is he?” to “I love you” at an unreasonable pace. But I still enjoyed it enough to get to the good twist at the end!

Fun summer read. Brutally honest self biography of a world renowned Model, from childhood to present.An optimistic view of her life, through glamour and fame, heartbreak and failure.

Book 2 of Millicent Quibb did not disappoint! What a fun and adventurous tale once again! This book sets us up perfectly for book 3! I cannot wait!

Great book! Loved the twist and turns

Found it difficult to follow all the different characters. Couldn’t keep my focus on the storyline too. The written “accents” of the characters was annoying. Did not capture my interest. Did not really enjoy this book.

I listened to Elyse read her audiobook, and it was every bit as delightful as you would expect it to be coming from her. I laughed and cried, empathized and felt seen. Thank you, Elyse, for sharing yourself with the world.

Imagine, if you will, that your life completely changes because of an accident… You take responsibility for your alcohol and drug usage and just when you think you will be free, a pandemic happens. This was a powerful and moving book. (I shed some tears.)

Definitely a difficult read, very emotional. The characters stick with you and you will continue to think about it.
