Honestly I think it was chapter 21 or more befor it got any good and the the reason I carried on was because I know she does a good ending. The ending was good and I’d have loved another couple of chapters on the end and a right few chopped off the start. I love her books listened to about 7 or 8. The others were all brilliant! Still a big fan 🥰

Not one of her best 😞
